Head Into the Light

It was a darkness unlike any darkness
Any darkness ever seen before,
For it was complete and in its starkness
In its starkness there was nothing more.

I was swept and drowned in colossal waves
Waves that would never crest before the shore
That lay where there was only me
Only me with nothing to wage war.

I could see naught and I could feel naught
Not even a soul within my core,
For the darkness had spread within myself
And within myself it spent my ore.

Though I was blind I heard the silence
The silence that grew to become a roar,
Which would take my body away from me
And from me would grow to spread and soar.

I knew nothing then and it knew me
Knew me more than I had known before
So that I was nothing in its heart
And it was nothing I would abhor.

I saw a flicker and knew myself
Awakened by some force of yore
That bade me head into the light
So that I may not suffer anymore.

But the light was blinding; the contrast too stark
So I turned and sought refuge in the dark.

Bzzzz!

In a blur it strikes
A tiny blight
Upon a dozing giant.

Wake, you fool,
For fate is cruel
And you shan’t be defiant.

It drinks your blood
And steals your love
Are you to be compliant?

It’s kill or die
Before the mosquito bite
*Something that rhymes with giant*

more or less intended to be humorous. it's kinda late and i don't write well unless i've been clean for at least a few days

_EZ

You’ve been
Here before it’s
Nothing you’ve never seen but
Somehow
It’s still different now.

It sounds
Weird - more hollow
Just one speaker
Playing music
The other’s
Dead and silent.

All so
Distant and yet
As you’re fading in and
Out it
Snaps you back to life.

Open
Your eyes the wider
You’ll see
Nothing that you
Thought that you would
See.

Keep on
Reading your book
The other
World will just look
More real than this
Life you’re living
Now.

Do things
Work the way you think or
Do they all know
Something
You’ll never figure out?
