The Trench Poem by Kamal Komal

i woke up inside a deep dark trench
Or was it a well, but there i didn't find any water
for i felt only the cold stones pressing against my head
looking up everything seems to get clear
There is the blue sky, the white clouds
all i need was to climb up, so that's what i did
slowly steadily one step at a time
and when the sky was just a grasp away
i felt this agony for i know this last step
i am out of this well but am I free?
I reckon life isn't simple at all
All the time we are left in an illusion
that we are one step closer to our destiny
but when i climb this last final step
what surety do i have for who knows
All the long i was sitting inside a well
Dug inside another deep wide trench.
