Darkness To Light....

Darkness To Light....

A Poem by Onlyme

The darkness is a terrible passage of time
that leads you on a downward spiral of
hate, dread and badness.

That encompasses you like a mist.
And never leaves you alone.

It seeps inside your heart, mind
and soul. And makes your body
feel weak and unless.

You're unable to fight it.
And it shows you it's
powers in night terrors
and daydreams.

Visions that haunt you
and play like a record.
Inside your mind's eye.

You feel trapped by fear
and sadness.

But when a small glimmer of light
descends from goodness near you.

It helps lift the cloak of darkness.

Bit by bit. Until you eventually see
a stroke of you who you used
to be. Happy and content.

And you shall be once more
with time and effort of self-love
and compassion.

Knowing that time of darkness will
fade yet again. And the like will return
to you once more.

Hi Dawn. I can relate to your very well written poem. I suffered so badly from PTSD after I came back from the foolish Vietnam war. It was only when I took a look within me that I saw that light you spoke about. It was then that I felt the sweetest joy in my heart, and I will never go back to where I once was.

Thank you for commenting on my poem. I tried to answer your comments, but the site left nowhere for me to get in. Anyhow, thank you so much for those nice words...peter
