I'm compelled to deny my darkness
but what would that prove?
hated nothingness of feeling
within the remains of my soul
stirring what is left
a fiery specter of need
grappling with its essence
so that I may understand
halted growth my desire not realized
ashes blow through me causing confusion
the dark echoes and I listen to its passion
it is better this than emptiness
hollow grievance of faith
my thoughts collide with others
lighting the night with my onyx
colors blend and reality bends
and I face the truth of me
within the horror
gothic gentle and pure
it is with great resolve I embrass this part of me
sacred vulerability sanctity from the cold
embers of the glowering kindness stir
and I follow the darkness deeper
Powerfully penned, Brenda. It’s because of our past that we are who we are now my friend. I’ve been making peace with my past, and trying to move forward towards the light. I can relate to this write. Appreciate you.
