Pain--
a dormency
distends---
belly
of a life...
pretend...

Do without
and seek within
complacency
a devil's grin....

Feel it rise
and capture throat--
erase the pain
of words life wrote--
I wait for dawn
unmercifully--
a prayer that sun
will rise in me...

And even now
I search for death--
poison--
in my every breath...

I liked the dawn.
I liked the dew.
I liked the thought
of something new.

I thought that I
adored the dark--
when truly,
I just craved light's spark.

There are places inside our souls -
that have never been touched.
There are places inside our hearts -
that need to be loved this much.

serenity,

a darkness falls
when light is needed
so spark is bright
when duly greeted
I pray your night
will be defeated
and in your eyes
that spark repeated

~ A very moving poem, my friend. Keep writing ~
