Dark side of the moon

Poetic Dan



It is hard to come close to my fire or even comfort it, as my dark side says what's the point to exist...

Nothing but pain and suffering, clawing at each day hoping nothing else wants to be paid!

To find a purpose but unable to keep my head afloat, we all want something for nothing or information that suits our beliefs boat!

When even my baby girls Christmas money got swallowed by the bank, I feel like I'm losing everything to societies cranks.

Unable to give my son his independence or free his mind from inhibiting labels, this was my own fight now it's gone round in circles.

No matter the positivity or light you give, there's an opposite reaction that is covered with grit to point it shreds any motivational gift!

As this anger inside me not many see and if they do my shame turns it into tears, flowing out from my soul begging for no more as I hit the floor!

There is much more on the darkest side of my moon, so I write poetry knowing each moment will prove that life is not smooth.

All a big part of a galactic rhythmic ripple or two, not to feel empty and see if there is a better tomorrow for me & you!

  • Comment from author about the poem: The tune I chose can rip me apart on days like today but I'm greatful my eldest daughter played it many moons ago! Within her spirit I can never lose mine... This year will be what it will be and I'll continue to fly! Dark or light this is my life, thank you all for being the wind underneath my broken wings!

    Forget about harping on about broken wings Dan, be pleased you can fly. Many can't.

      You know that life can be hard you have had hard times but you have got through them and have been finding the light side of the moon, this hard times are in your mind but the more you move forward with the light you have found the less times you will remember them.
      See you tonight Dan under the light of the moon.

        Well I must say that being threatened by companies and not much work is definitely not in my mind.... Yet to not let it effect me I guess is in my mind...

        Thanks for sitting under the stars to remember love is life in looking for....

        That's a nice thought to start my day off! Forever the inspiration my friend..

        Have a great day

        kinda crazy, what a few inked blots of alphabet can do on a blank canvas of possibility, when it's utilised with such sincerity...
        when we share, our reality - stripped: from that 'self' we think 'needs' to be 'projected',
        distilled to that raw truth of chaotic fragility - we choose to own, in that mirror reflection we can barely confront, yet still find the strength to accept as our true selves...
        what a beautiful write my friend, never take for granted this avenue of solace your writing provides to other's but also - more importantly: yourself,
        thanks for sharing!

        • Poetic Dan

          I've waited all day to feel your spirit and vibration my friend, you never fail to inspire me to be more me!

          The reflection you give makes me check definitions, slow down my brain and pay more attention!

          Truly making it a pleasure in sharing!

          Dark or light
          Fantasy or fiction
          All poetry is life
          Given from the souls plight...

          Think ill keep that & wish you a wonderful night
