We all have darkness

Poetic Dan



Brought up like an animal without much compassion, has left me with foundations I'm forever falling back on. 

 

This may of found me a purpose that I'm happy to oblige but still a lose of connection is there on the human side 

 

Forever in a day my brain will try to find conformation I'm not worthy, even though I've lived long enough to find out we can't please everyone. 

 

The drowning affect of one comment "that's very expensive" after turning up because it's actually become extreme and this could end its life if not done right! 

 

Takes me right back to the past of who do I think I am, trying my hardest to become someone under a wicked hand. 

To hit a dog for coming back after it runs off, means their truly is a misunderstandings of the way reinforcement works. 

You only create an unpredictable being that never really trusts or switches off, this is the difference between an animal or a pet. 

 

Also my own condition of actions with no regret, one day I hope we all see the reason for understanding it. 

 

To end trauma rippling affects, acknowledge a darkness each soul has inside of it! 

 

Together we can find a light switch.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I wrote this to let go of a deep dark vibration as it was triggered getting a call as someone was in the vets to decide on a life. Of course I gave them all that I had, to show this is because of the environment its at! The last thing I expected was to be questioned a few days after helping and even haggling my price to the point I've still not received what I'm due. Humans have never surprise me but this truly is a first, it won't ever stop me doing what I do....( adding video for Dave, if he's stops by)

    Trauma can have such an ongoing affect , sometimes .., I understand as I’ve been through a lot of it . We can say I am worthy ... but underneath that there’s those critical thoughts sometimes ...

    A well expressed piece of writing , Dan )

    • Poetic Dan

      Yes behind my pride and worthiness, is more than most will give the time to understand.
      Really appreciate your time my friend, hope life is as good as it can get.

      I certainly have stopped by, Dan – I cannot tell a lie.
      That little lady – amazing. I have really bad balance (always have) and therefore nothing but admiration for her.
      ‘Wish I could say the same of you – exploiting poor dumb animals to provide your locomotion…. 😊
      Great little video made me nostalgic for those British seaside towns… Also admired your written piece – the way you have used your past very negative experiences to give you insights into what abuse can do to all living creatures – including dogs and humans.

        Hey, we all have to earn our grub even the mutts lol

        Yes forever learning to not forgive or forget but like nature just keep growing from it!

        Really appreciate your time and never to late to find that balance or inner rhyme.

        Keep up the write

        Oops also glad I could bring a bit of UK back lol

        No animal deserves the abuse and disrespect of uncaring humans. Well penned Dan. ; )

        • Poetic Dan

          Yet it is a never-ending cycle to animal and child. For only we can brake the chains, always appreciated my friend

          • Accidental Poet

            Yes, animal and human life so precious. ; )

          • SureshG

            The expression of pain, suffering, torture and plea is so clearly visible even in their eyes, that makes the inhumane behavior that much more cruel, that your words have brought to light.

            • Poetic Dan

              Ooo you put it to well there as a kid I just hated the sound but now I know it never sat well for many reason and obviously did just stop with the dog.

              Really appreciate your time

              It dont take a genius to see that 'We all have darkness' was written from the heart ..

              A little bit of insight can go a very long way when ya write and post it Dan ... I think it was Dylan said Always carry a spare light bulb with ya ................Take care mate ..

                My friend after writing this I truly saw what I'd been missing! No one has to understand my methods and I need to recognise its okay for that to trigger my inner (duck it all) child of not trusting my own spices to be authentic.

                Luck many here and around help break that pattern!

                Thanks for your time is given back, truly 😉

                The negatives from those formative years lurks within me and still manifests with a sense of being unworthy. I know where you are coming from.

                • Poetic Dan

                  Of course a delightful soul like you must of felt a lot, to be able to understand so easily. I will take my next sip of rum for that day that were not so my friend.

                  Always a pleasure to know your vibe, keep up the write.

                  That light is always there Dan and I know that you have found that light switch.

                    Yep, it was just learning to not blow a fuse and let others do it!

                    Thank you for always being here on my journey

                  • myself and me

                    Some was engulfed by the darkness, those who find the light survived. Thank you for sharing.
