When I awaken
To a gentle darkness
Where, I no longer
Possess feelings of affection
Love nor hate
No longer inhale
The freshness of air
No Longer Care of today
Tomorrow, nor the future
Just a gentle dark
Exsitence.
No longer will I
Ever taste
The tenderness of your
Desiring lips
Nor the nectars
Of your heavenly kiss.
No longer will I taste
The cool clear waters
Of a running stream
Just the gentle darkness
Of this tunnel
I walk within.
I see at a distance
A bright light
No larger than a dime
I observed it
Getting larger and larger
For within here
There is no concept of time.
As I near it's location
Lo And Behold!
I've arrived
At beautiful fields
Of green clovers.
There the unicorn peacefully
Prances and feeds
At the meadows
Of serene and simplicity
I see the sheep
And the lion
They lie in togetherness
Licking each other's wounds.
I've finally reached
My destine, destination
I'll not look behind
For I am at the now
Where there is no future
No past
Just arrived at the place
Where my id will forever last
As I lay peacefully
On the green fields
Of where, "I No Longer Care."
There the unicorn peacefully
"Prances and feeds
At the meadows
Of serene and simplicity
I see the sheep
And the lion
They lie in togetherness
Licking each other's wounds."
This is a picture of HOPE.
Long may this be a haven for us to go when we're overloaded.
A sad, tender, forgiving write, William.... Many of us find ourselves at this place psychologically. It is a place of rest, a place to recuperate. Well written.

And the lion

William,
I truly embrace your D'Artagnan personality! This one speaks loudly of the pilgrimage[gentle darkness]on earth.......until reaching the final restingplace,,,where I will no longer care, either!
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
What a wonderful write! You have made me feel like was on that same journey with you while reading this poem! Well-done indeed!
