There's a Darkside of me hidden from the world,
Somewhere deep inside my heart like a ball its curled;
I don't show it to everyone, Am I ashamed?
But it's my Darkside as it is named;
No one wants to show the world their flaws,
Still deep inside this side of me glows;
I am unaware myself of it,
I'll accept it someday hope still lit;
No, i am not bad,
This side is full of failures I ever had;
Still, a question lingers in my brain,
By hiding some part of it what do I gain?
Perfect is boring some say,
To overcome this, accepting this side is the only way;
Why such insecurity is developing its roots,
You won't know the pain unless you step in the same boots;
Everyone has their dark version buried somewhere deep inside,
Why is it expected to hide?
I am proud of who I am,
You find me imperfect, I won't give a damn;
Why this version of me plays hide and seek,
It is the proof I am not weak;
Yeah, you heard it right,
It depicts my never-ending might;
I have fought those battles and faced them courageously,
Doesn't matter I won or lost but I went through it graciously;
I concluded its not my darkest side;
Instead, it's the brightest one which doesn't need to hide;
It is just I refused to face this version of mine,
But isn't it how I was crafted by the divine;
Why chase perfection,
I guess my vision needs expansion;
Everyone is awesome in their own way,
You never know if your smile makes someone's day;
If there is dark, there will be light too,
How to portray, it depends on you;
You don't need validation from anyone here,
Someone is always there for you to cheer;
You just need a group of right mates,
There is a hidden blessing for you that waits;
Having some flows is never wrong,
There is always someone to complete your unfinished song;
You would no longer need that suffocating mask,
The universe will shower you with love in which you'll bask;
You will be surprised how perfect is God's timing,
Every event in your life will end up rhyming;
My dear Darkside you don't need to hide anymore,
That page of judgement is what I just tore;
Who are these people to judge you,
When you know they have their own share of flaws too;
Come my Darkside, let me embrace you,
To improve, first I need to chase you;
Embrace your Darkside, my dear reader,
I bet, You'll come out as a leader;
I am here to boost your confidence,
You have a beautiful rhythm on which only you can dance;
Let me tell you, you make a difference,
In this path of growing, your insecurity is just a hindrance;
When your heart tells let go,
Don't listen to your ego which says no;
You have your own stage to shine,
Remember, you are a gorgeous crescent of mine;
When you feel overwhelmed just close your eyes,
You will hear that notorious demon's defeating sighs;
It's your turn to embrace your Darkside,
Knowing yourself is one interesting ride;)...

- Comment from author about the poem: This is just what I think is important to address...Everyone has a Darkside hidden somewhere but this is not actually our Darkside. Life is full of ups and downs and no side of ours is dark. No one is perfect, everyone has some scope of improvement in them. We need to quit chasing perfection and need to embrace ourselves as who we are. When you know your dark and bright side, no one can stop you from growing because you never know what you think is a limitation in you turns out to be a blessing in disguise!🤔🤩🤗😊😃 Do share your review in the comment box!! Lots of love! ~XOXO

What a lovely poetry dear poet
The first line of every stanza resonates with me as well as with everyone around
Yet the next line tells to accept and finds positivity
The word “optimistic” your poetry speaks
Just like yin and yang they both exist together
So is good and dark side of ours
It’s best to accept the both
After all nobody is perfect and imperfect makes us human
Thai is the beauty that resides
Thanks for sharing this epic write and keep sharing
Have a great day ahead dear poet.

Very good poem ) nobody is perfect , even those that think they are , are simply most probably maybe hiding their imperfections from themselves .
You expressed yourself so well !!🙂🙂
Thank you!!! Yeah, it's just sometimes either we lose track or get too influenced by others that we start comparing and degrading ourselves. Remember, you are your biggest cheerleader!!😉❤🤗🥰
I think the brain is that complex, it hides all sorts of sides from us.
A little Jekyll, a little Hyde.
Yeah, the brain really is complex but it's all up to us to handle our situation😃😊
Well Written. There’s a lot of hidden scars in it.❤️
