Darkness

Wolf

In this darkness, my mind is not mine.

In this darkness I am not myself.

In this darkness I am someone else.

In this darkness I am something else.

In this darkness I am completely lost

 

My inner darkness has reached the surface.

My inner darkness has changed me to someone I don't know.

My inner darkness, changed me to someone I wish I could ignore.

My inner darkness is on display.

My inner darkness will stay.

 

The darkness came for me.

The darkness consumed me.

The darkness is my new truth.

The darkness has fought a war with me and now has won.

The darkness was a place of comfort.

The darkness was an answer.

 

This darkness talks to me.

The darkness tells me many things.

It tells me things like it'll be ok.

It tells me how I should handle everything.

It tells me I was wrong to ever fight it.

 

I don't want to listen 

But I have no answers

Darkness has them

Sometimes it tells me hurt them all.
Sometimes it tells me to hurt myself.

It say it'll be all ok if you just go away. 

 

I'm here alone with the darkness.

Maybe that's not true, for I am the darkness.

Maybe this was always me. Someone that was going to be dark.

All I know now is that no light shall ever shine through to me in this darkness.

      Glad you like the poem. I'm not much of a poet but I try. If your escape is poetry I imagine you have some very strong, imaginative, and interesting poems.
