In to Darkness

In to darkness



The world sways

sometimes we stumble

our knees buckle

sometimes we fall



what if I can't rise one more time

what if the darkness sometimes wins

the light shines bright beside me, but

the shadow engulfs me within



at times I have held onto your wing

and you not only raise up

you take me higher than I have been

the air is shallow and breath is slow

but eventually we return foot to soil

and mouth to words, but

here I fall again



My thoughts talk to me like a once crowded room

where no one longer lives

My memories whisper to me in pictures with a mute voice

every color a word, every shape a phrase that reminds me

yesterdays are sweet, but only fading dreams

today is slowly becoming just a memory

tommorow is an open book

empty page after empty page, but

my ink well is not dry
