PARADISE LOST*
You can no longer knock at the door
of your paradise lost
bliss you forfeited
now you are tossed
into the oblivion
of limbo
there's no light to lead you
and you don't know where to go.
Here is the abyss
of the darkest of the dark
worse than the ship-wrecked
not even the weakest spark
of hope will appear to console
none will hear your lament
banished from the golden land
in this wretched pit all your years will be spent.
* metaphorical and allegorical----there are no religious undertones here
