Blackness
Blackness
Blackness, I’m tired of running from you…
So instead I sit here taking a beating
I have not the strength to bat you off… No
My Flesh grows tattered, my Heart is Torn
And Yet… I’ve surrounded myself with love
And Warmth
And Hope
Like a Chess Match with a Blind Man…
Yet I am still out matched
Like a Swim with Weighted Boots…
I Sink in it, and wait at the bottom for it to Pass
Waiting…
Bloop… Bloop
The Bubbles Pass
I Check my Time Piece, but it appears to have Faltered
The Submersion seems to have gotten the better of it
Water Floods it’s many gears
And Countless Circuits
And the Lines grow Heavy on it’s Face
Bloop…
I shall wait for this to pass…

Indeed, it was a tough night when I Wrote this, lol… I was feeling down, and just tired of trying to cheer myself up, ha
So, as is usually best to do, I merely let myself Feel it… And like always, it did pass
Holidays were a bit tough this year, but I still loved them… At least I’m Writing lots of Poetry, lol
Thanks for your Compliment and Comment Lady…
Your Work very much touches me the same way… So much more there than the words
