One or two of them are, I think, not too bad, and are either salvageable or perhaps even publishable. I'll put a few of them up here over the next few weeks. I'd love to know what people think of them.
This is the first. I don't have a clear recollection of what place I was in when I wrote it but I'm glad I'm not in that place now. Nonetheless, I actually quite like it...
Awakening
The dark tides converge
Closing in, I’m welcoming
The coming embrace
Enrapt in numbing darkness
The solace of not caring
The darkness softly
Embraces, seducing me
Alluring gently
The solace of not caring
A death, no life, a comfort?
Cocooned in the dark
Life seeps away so slowly
Deep inside I cry
A death, no life, a comfort?
I think rather this is hell
A cry awakens
A sliver of soul buried
In darkness. Struggle begins
I think rather this is hell
Am I truly so empty?
No longer seduced
Beginning to see the light
A journey starting
Am I truly so empty?
Perhaps no longer, perhaps…
