The Heart of Darkness-3

A Poem by Marshall

As dense as the night encloses you
in its firm grasp
life evolves with sunrise
and a new day.

Light enters the darkest moment
fulfilling the need for resurrection
setting free the entombed cavity
where resides
pain and nonacceptance

Fly you must from this sticky ruin
where you are unable to struggle free
trapped in a void of loneliness
the answers completely devoid of reason

The Heart of Darkness
beats in a strange flutter
until you seek the Calming Light
succumb to the mystical forces
at your command.

Author Notes

From self-knowledge comes acceptance of how vulnerable every person is. This is the Darkness. This can be dispelled with knowing yourself and setting yourself free by using the Mystical forces that you were born with. Its just a matter of recognizing what forces you have at your command. These could be an understanding of supernatural things, like numbers, colours, insight,
prophecies and clairvoyance, instinct, sympathy, compassion and silence or solitude. In using these forces, either singularly or in in conjunction with each other you can build a gigantic wall that will prevent darkness from settling into yourself permanently.

This is mysticism at its best.
