Of Darkness There is darkness and Shadows in the hearts oppress Darkness is not a cad But the shadows do me bad. In the dark I rest my mind But also dwell shadows I find Fasting the phantoms of the past And the shadows that they cast It is the wrapping rouse and steer The tapping of the blind I fear The whispering of hollow point Attack my bones at every joint. Whispers me a tale of woe A whale of truth ago And vertigo tumbles me Upon a black and timeless sea A sea without the stars to guide Within this black I cannot hide. |

You and I have discussed concept of vertigo - we both have wept 'tis not a fun thing this we know walking upright, then down we go... it makes for shadows lean and mean offering fantasy but shallow dream ~ for this I know, so be held in ease while I gently hug and squeeze... ![]() ![]() |

Ah dear Sy..a thought provoking post this ayem. I've been told on many an occasion that I am a bit dizzy. Perhaps a spot of tea would help? ![]() ~Morning hugs & tea, Nancy~ ~I've loved you forever, in lifetimes before~ |

All I want to do is wrap you in a warm embrace and say, "There, there, Dear Thigh Man, I mean "Sigh" Man, the sun is up and everything is going to be just fine." ![]() Loveulotsuknow, EA |

This hurts, dear Seymour. But it is only a temporary state of darkness, the light is right there to erase the shadows. Trust! Love, Margherita ![]() |

another beautifully descriptive side of live....one that may touch us all, at times...in lack of awareness as well as a medical problem. Thanks Sy, wishing you a great day. |

Darkest before the dawn, I hope. Do you really have vertigo or was this an analogy? In either case, best wishes. Really appreciated your writing. |
