Dark to Light
Poetry | | Links:
This poem is about finding yourself through hardships.
Ripped through the abyss
Darkness that did not miss
Confounded was the light
Stood there black in white
Lost was the shining might
It did not set things right
The ever pitch dark chasm
Remember it is only a phantasm
I failed myself, I rest in the pit
A hell of my choosing, its deficit
How to get out, I know not
Learn and recollect what was taught
There is a way out, it is certain
But a final leap of faith, into darkness
After that, draw aside the curtain
Be here now, and all else is useless
What do you see now?
A new world, bereft of nightmare
Every face I meet, a holy encounter
A domain where ‘they’ do not dare to enter
Keep looking, for I was never there
