THE DARK SIDE

THE DARK SIDE

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Within the light
Lies the dark,
And all it takes is a little spark
To start a raging fire within the heart,
And light becomes dark.

'THE DARK SIDE'
Andrew Mitchell,
Wrong thoughts, misleading ways we must guard against what seems light but is not. We must guard our hearts. Life is full of opportunities to fall in the dark of sin and wrong. Deception is the enemy.
Blessings,
Kathy

your words are true and I've provided the point, as most have never truly seen the dark. 11:45 PM on a cold December night in the cold dark waters off the Alaskan coast, 80 feet deep and seems real nice until the light goes blip and then you have the real dark of night.

Forgive my travel of mind and thought. Just having fun as you set my mind in motion again.

Nice short verse which you know I like.

haha travel in thought my friend and thanks for your kind words.
I can see it, true duality as in yin and yang, a piece of one inside the other...but like you said, it becomes overwhelmed and then is the other. Besides the whole yin and yang nonsense, it is a great metaphor for what happens to a soul when they go to the dark side with anything in their life.

A poem of reversing
Darkness can be a passion maker

So i am a fan of dark and light
in balance

Very precise yet powerful emotion in your words

Darkness is fun to play with in writes for it weighs heavy and is brooding
so much beauty in such few lines. As always I'm impressed

Hi Andrew. This is quite profound as you explore the subject of light and dark. An analogy of love and life, good times and bad. Love this one, alf
