Dark Reflections

By

Michael Tyler

June 2008


Smiles come not easy to my lips
When I think upon thoughts
Best forgotten
And left in the past.

Joy visits not my heart
When I consider feelings
Best abandoned
In the wake of distant memories.

Fear grips not my soul
When I confront dangers
Oft ignored
In the shadows of my life.

Cold touches not my hand
As bony fingers grasp
Lost hopes
Without trepidation.

Light banishes not the darkness
When I seek that distant night
Fast approaching
Astride death's pale horse.

Honest words, raw honest to the bone
Always stand tall.

Well done.

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
