in the darkness
painful visions speak to you
of a past disturbed
by other’s pain
tears of black falling
like acid rain
within your soul
paralysing your present vision
it seems you cannot move
from the force of repression that ties you down
as these ghosts speak to you
of the most terrible things
please I am begging you
do not stay in your room all alone
do not allow this darkness that was never yours
to posssess your soul
but release these demons to the light of air
it may appear
that there is no place here for you
in a world so often oblivious to the desperation
of a soul beseiged by the annihilation
of despair
but life it truly cares for you
its just that when you hold this pain so close
the light and life of present time is stolen
as you become frozen
in fear and rage
and these demons so often
do not speak the truth
and as long as you fail to reach for light
they will remain victorious
in truth this darkness never belonged to you
was just a visitation calling your soul to liberation
from the haunted hell of unending pain
that so often seeks to lay its claim
upon your spirit of light

Bittersweet & beautiful, Deborah 🌹
