Darkness and light

Darkness and light

A Poem by Jess Quna
"

A bit to reassure my friend though he'd be worried because of my sceptisism...

"

In the darkness is where I'm living,

In the darkness is where I write,

Everyone keeps complaining,

Even though they're in the light.

 

You tell me come out,

You tell me leave it behind,

All this darkness and all the doubt,

You should step into the light.

 

Yet I ask you 'why should I

When darkness is so safe and calm',

And I can tell that you will lie,

And say there is no pain at all.

 

When I point it's to all the others

standing in the light,

'What's with them' I demand to know,

You tell me 'they fight'.

 

'With whom and why' is what I ask,

Yet no answer shall I recieve

As they aren't happy in the light,

While it's the darkness you want me to leave.

Just pointing out there is 'good' in 'darkness' and 'bad' in 'light'. So basicly the yin-yang principle.

Being a lover a Manga and seeing the Yin and Yang principle a lot in stories this reminds me of something that a villain would say...It's very deep...Like someone who tried to go to the good side once but saw it being corrupt and ended up going back to the darkness...I also think of Light from Death Note when Light comes up lol...Good rhymes and overall a very damned good poem...Keep em coming!

I have been off quite some time but I hope I'll slowly return to writing more. A fast summary of who I am and what you can expect to find on my profile: I mostly dabble in lyrics and poetry. I was.. more..
