Poem Artwork

Reaching and crying out
But finding no one there,
Trying every day
To find the good
Promised
By the rising sun,
Sometimes I succeed,
Other times...
Not.
How I Wish
I understood
Why I have
These periods
Of darkness.
I was once told
They are
The price I pay
For being so
Creative.
At this moment
I would trade
My every creative bone
For a gift
In accounting!

May the darkness vanish soon.

Darkness speaks and it's telling you that you should go out and seek the light and forget about hiding in the dark corners of your mind. There's a wonderful world out there for you to discover.

When you are in the Abyss of self sorry...
there will never be anything there... we sabotage
our-self in this manner... needless to say you keep
yourself in self-sorrow looking for a miracle to happen
that will "rescue" you... And if any soul ever told you
that it is a price you pay? Get away from that or those
souls as fast as you can, for those are dark souls...

I do like your ending line, even though I know it was said
in emotional desperation it gave me a small giggle because
how many would love to trade what they have now for something
else to escape what they are in now. :)

Love and Light
