The Dark LightA Poem by King JamesThe Dark Light Here we are once again, I confined in this pen, To display a mirror image of what lie within. The pain that overshadows, keeps devouring my light, Like a game but now its over, shadows eat at my life. As if though for a lifetime, I tried to alleviate, But I too have never admitted to loving all that I hate. For if so, history would be a mystery, instead it repeats, Its agility to bring hostility and misery is unique. I look at the way we to make things brighter and happy, There’s a flame that just brings pain, still its lighter attracts me. Try not to give up for he is me and me is he, So if I can’t live for me, its only fair I live for he. Not just for the way we have chosen to correlate, But for the tolerance and commonsense we display as ingrates. So as I leave it be, this is the story of my life, No need in telling me that I’m lost, truly this darkness is my light!
