The night approaches
The Day is gone
From the bowels of the Earth
The Dark is born
We cower and seek shelter
Run helter and skelter
moaning and weeping,
“I hate the Dark”.
But what if the
tables are turned
and you are apprised
Just like you hate it
You the Dark despise
It gives you shelter
from dangers all around
sure it hides monsters
but aren’t you just one of them.
It gives you peace
Absolute.
And you run from it
to that chaos that is light
Fire.
Fire that preys on others to burn
And Dark which feeds on itself
Yet you worship the fire.
You say you are afraid
of the nightmares it brings
Is it really that
or you are scared
That the dark knows
All that you do
in the singularity it provides.
All that you leave behind,
Hoping no one will ever find.
So i ask you again,
Is it night that scares you ?
Or the past that haunts your soul ?
And you run to the light
rejecting a part that is your own.
Just like a tree which gives you all
and you burn it down
The Dark gives you what you want
and you shirk
too meek to accept your own desires
Afraid of stepping in and letting go.
For once shed this farce and let go
For the dark is where you came from
And the dark is where you shall go.
the poems really good but doesnt dark have shades too.. isn’t dark actually a form of light unless you mean black or a void (what you call provider of ‘singularity’)
Hey… so you FINALLY got around to it. Glad you liked it
You are right but as i see it there are shades of grey between black and white … both independently are absolute in my mind.
Hope you are having fun in your vacant days 🙂
nice.
i wonder when will i ever have the sensibilities to look the things in such perspective… I guess you were right when you said in vacations that i should read more 🙂
glad you liked it man. 🙂
you know there are somethings which when you read or listen, sounds too very much correct and give an insight of your inner-self..your writing gives me that same sense of feeling..nice
i just write what i feel … so i guess we all are not so different on the inside 🙂
You Know what…some one is very much impressed by you..when i made her read your goodbye..heheheee
I am glad he/she liked it as well 🙂
