Darkness πŸ’«
poem

Darkness πŸ’«

Lights out...

Then darkness came

Crawling like whispers unheard in the night of the dark ocean

Emotions jumbling and tumbling

Plunged into the space of nothingness

Emptiness is form

Form is emptiness

Chants of solace but yet nothing but same darkness.

It suddenly held no meaning

Made no sense

Incomprehensible but filled with immense despair

Night probably came too soon for those who stayed sane..

But for that one being

Darkness is Night and

The night was darkness

The serenity and selene presence of the majestic light of the night brought forth no reaction

Form is emptiness

Emptiness is form

Chants in the bid to bud

But yet the same result

Darkness

Opulence, magnificence held no meaning

Regular habits seemed rather estranged

And nothing beat in sync with the drums the mind conjured

Loneliness smiled in the corner

Content

Yet yearning for the presence of the ever-present

Darkness

Flowers tilted,

Opening in glee to the gentle light from the moon continually teasing them

Yet held no allure

Feelings numb and trained into space

Seeing and feeling nothing but darkness

Heart rending, gut wrenching emptiness

Emptiness is form

Form is emptiness

Just darkness and nothingness

Peace fled seducing something even worse

Loneliness

Darkness.
