Poetry: Darkness

Darkness

Closing my eyes

hoping the pain goes away.

Applying my temporary fix

like it's a drug.

Only It's me looking at the back

of my eye lids

trying to avoid the rift

the world has caused me.

You may see the darkness as

pain, but I see it

as an escape from the conscious

reality that is life.

Not that I don't enjoy life,

but sleep is just as peaceful

and when you close your eyes the

pain stops and it becomes darkness.

In a positive light.
