Blinding Lights, Splintering Darkness

Blinding Lights and Splintering Darkness

 

All the lights are so blinding,

And the darkness behind me is forever binding,

But, here in the center,

My heart is in broken splinters,

 

To step into the light,

Is to forget the memories of darknesses fight,

To step into the dark,

Is to give up and forget the lights beautiful spark,

 

Among the brightness,

Everything around me will be blissfully plightless,

I won't have to remember,

Those cold lonely days of December,

 

Among such darkness,

My entire life will be bleak and sparkless,

I will only yearn for,

The light to come again knocking at my door,

 

To forget the past,

Is to give up dealing with it cowardly and fast,

But to deal with it,

Is to bring on panic attacks and anxieties fits,

 

What do I do,

When I am just so confused,

When all of these roads to walk are unknown?

What if the path I choose, I end up alone?

[Coyote Poetry]

A powerful and sad poem. Sometime life seem like a road with roadblocks. Maybe around the roadblock could be a ray of hope. Must climb over the damn thing.
I could feel the sadness and disappointment in the words. A excellent poem.
