Mystery of darkness

I

Of what use is the light without the dark?

What purpose has the light without the dark?

The dark with is vast an unimaginable quality...

seems to be the only reason why the light functions.

II

The dark scares me,

For where there is no light the dark exists.

Where the light exists, the dark lurks around

Waiting patiently, consistently for the light to fade.

III 

Fade away into oblivion.

The mystery of darkness;

Darkness is light, for out of darkness came light.

Dear Dicey Jones

Thank you for sharing this piece.

I immediately relate to your sentiment but I also admire the stylistic unusual for the poetic of I, II, III used as if in prose.

Light cannot exist without darkness anymore than darkness without light.

However where the complexity of life begins anxd ends is that there are so many shades of grey in between.

I find it sad that those words have been stolen by EL James in the interests of a trilogy I do not honour.

They have pre-existed her - shades of grey - and will exist long after she is gone, and we all will have.

Our redemption.

A meaningful (to me) piece of writing.

Thank you and with my encouragement, such as it is worth

James

In a way.. Some tick drizzled through me.. The inception of light from darkness got me. Amazing poem.
