Catching Darkness

The poem is about pain and guilt

Probing a peg to hang the pain,

Pain runs deeper to the weeping soul.

When soul breaks it makes no sound,

But noise is all heard inside the head.

When head don't make feel the present,

Then present is all that we don't want.

Wants had lead to a swollen heart,

It beats, just to keep alive the hurt.

Tried catching darkness from the night,

Tried taking dirt away from the ditch,

Vacuum is glowing inside with bright,

Torrent is flowing upside in a twitch. 

Sorry is only a shallow word,

Can't show what's beneath the head.

Word hides all its virtues behind,

And body splits what souls bind.

I like this passage especially:

"When soul breaks it makes no sound, But noise is all heard inside the head."

Sometimes I think we feel like this. That we are losing our mind at times because the emotions in our head overwhelm us - and we don't know where to to turn to. Thus I think is the reason for sleep and dreams - to equate and equalize the balance within us for the new day.

Nicely written poem, Shiggy !

It's easy to be empathetic with others - when you've been there yourself. Take care ... :)
