DarkDjinn53 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Memories stored within this vessel Some from me some from others … not yet known Best kept buried …left alone Ones caught in glimpses with my craft Pointed out …by those that see Why I can’t sleep or swallow to eat My darkness within …like the tempest sea …thundering behind my eyes …crashing behind my ribs Trying to tear me down …split me open Electric storms ignite my mind Visions… …in the light of day …or deepest night Revealed … beyond the wall of dream Drowned by the abyss within Blood and pain Swirling around the edge of reason Tormenting …still… …dive deeper Enveloped by the dark …free of thought …free of the tide And there a frail light flickers... Drawn by the warmth of its promise A calmness begins to spread A seal cracks … don’t be afraid Doorway in my mind unlatched … open me Soul laid bare …free to fly among them… … Pandora … 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saga Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Interesting. You give a reason to Pandora be opened. Do you see it as a reason or as a torture? But I like it, box of storms. (: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDjinn53 Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 Not torture - turmoil, maybe... I hold a lot in - I've never been one to express emotions easily - so there are times the pressure is so intense that I feel I will shatter. I have broken, more than once, when life got too overwhelming. But - for whatever reason i held onto at least a small seed of hope. The other idea, hinted at, I have yet to find the one with the courage to see the darkness within me, accept it, and not run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saga Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Everyone gets their hearts bruised in a way,or two. But,as I have said to many people,darkness cannot exist without the light. So,instead of being afraid of sinking into the darkness,one should have the courage to find the light causing the existence of darkness. As for the part with accepting,but not running from it,I think the first to accept should be ourselves. Accepting your own flaws means to be able accept other people's flaws. Or so I believe.
