SECRETS & SHADOWS

The difficulties of life

Every time I close my eyes and I try to introspect

I fall back into a deep sea of thoughts

Just when I think I have hit the rock bottom

I come to know it is just hurdles and stones

The goals to achieve are hidden in dust

And the purpose of living has become a lost cause

The time has come to shed some light

To give it all a thought and prepare for fight

The pain has become a welcomed guest

Anger and torture are a daily test

I lost the race at every phase of life

People see what they wish to see

The secrets are hidden, where they should be…

This is a great poem, but if I may offer you a bit of constructive criticism: "Just when I think, I have hit the rock bottom" you may want to take the comma out.
"And the purpose of living have become a lost cause" 'have' should be has if you are saying the purpose, indicating one purpose, because it is singular.

Awww..Thank you again..i suck at comma and semi colon stuff...was never good at it..:p
