Drakness

Inevitably it came

I was a child

sunk visibility 

cannot escape

first a mystery

then a haunting

devoured courage

it left me to an ocean

grip on to the drift wood 

the ocean of turbulent mass

I was left to find  my own voice

firs crying than waning subbing

it's impassive blackness terrifies

but no long longer devastating

I have looked into vast darkness

and found softness in it's texture

tolerating misunderstood fear

remaining still to be discovered

it's never been the sauce of fear

it became the surrogate blame

of consciousness we can't control

the real darkness we disown

for fear of facing the mirror

the soft velvety darkness

only sits silently entraps

the ripples of thoughts 

inexhaustible beauty

original existence

next to Light
