Cleanse, replenish, Confront the darkness

Refuse to dwindle

Decline to die

Life’s just a riddle

Maybe just a lie

 

Take a second glance

Focus, clear the path

Sharpen and balance

Vanish out life’s wrath

Feeble distractions

Obscure the true goal

Free destination

Yearning to be whole

For diseased thinking

Is wasting my time

Redirect thinking

To find flow and rhyme

Cleanse, replenish me

I am bare and drained

Infernal body

My spirit is stained

 

Confront the darkness

Currents will align

Negitive caressed

Positive will shine

Arouse my sixth sense

Ideas to explore

Strengthen my essence

To search out my core

Thought analysis

Seek threw and behind

To self synthesis

Temple soul and mind

Sacred endeavor

Energy to mend

The soul is forever

Physique has an end

This is an amazing poem. Really amazing. It had alot of power at the end. Focusing on the eternal, and banishing negative emmotions and feelings is not wrong, I feel its our very nature. Imperfection is an illusion that we only experience in this illusion called life. I want to save this poem. I will come back to it again. Love the focus, love the power of it. Nice work. : )

Gosh all your poems are amazing, lol. You will eventually get tired of me saying that....but I love how you're able to write so much in such a short poem, with such short lines. It's really quite amazing. And once again the rhyming is flawless!

I kinda get an idea of a rebirth occurring. That with the three "Cleanse, replenish, Confront the darkness" you can be anew. I am a person who thinks to much, so just of first glance I cannot say that I agree with it. But under Confront the Darkness you made it very general which in some way for a "rebirth" makes it kinda hard since you are unaware of what the Darkness actually is. Darkness is a deep concept, I believe you just touched the surface.

I take it as wise words, powerul ..I like the idea of confronting the darkness and not just ignoring it.. this is how we become whole and unafraid..I really enjoyed this poem.

What this piece says to me:

It speaks of a personal upheaval. One that has taken the soul and turned it inside and out, dragged it through the dirt and has now been given time to have rested in the mind. The mind has thought it over and personal power has overcome the negative and found a positive in all the bad's.
It's a poem of personal strength, fortitude and not wanting to submit to the evils of the world.

Stanza 8 line 2 (I think you meant "Through") *smiles*

Overall a well balanced work of crafted word that tells a story for everyone who reads it. Wonderful work!
