This dot on humanity
Marching to the continuous drum of their superiors.
Walking down an endless hallway that leads to a door that never opens
Even though we always think it will
Windows that let in the darkness
Enjoyment from Deception
A stinging sweet for oppressed souls
All your fear is consumed by the one who spoon feeds you lies,
And tightens your blindfold
Extol you blindness
For I have seen the light
And it scares me

The Light

Everyone faceless, nameless, hopeless
This dot on humanity
Marching to the continuous drum of their superiors.
Walking down an endless hallway that leads to a door that never opens
Even though we always think it will
Windows that let in the darkness
Enjoyment from Deception
A stinging sweet for oppressed souls
All your fear is consumed by the one who spoon feeds you lies,
And tightens your blindfold
Extol you blindness
For I have seen the light
And it scares me

I really like your metaphor "Walking down an endless hallway that leads to a door that never opens. Even though we always think it will." It makes a really good mental picture, and gets your point across. Also I like your ending line- it's a really good ending for it because it adds a twist to your poem, almost like irony.
