Darkness not so dark.

ah the darkness taken in,
I breathe with a sense of urgency,
sadness hugs my soul,
my one and only true companion,
my one and only friend indeed,
ah darkness lights the way,
silently it tiptoes in,
invitingly though not excepted
it must follow me through the maze,
blackness seeks me out,
weighing around about my eyes,
bandaging the cuts from deep within,
darkness breathes so easily,
no departing so I'm told.

this is a great piece to which I can totally relate too. due to what i've seen and felt over the past few months. because i'm a soldier. once again great work and i hope to see more and hope i get the time to read it.

I'm a dying romantic and when i can no longer write i can no longer live -Jeremiah Johnson-

thx Jeremiah, I hope all is going well with you, I know it is a hard time to go through being a soldier. Just keep writing and you'll be amazed what comes out.
