Blinding light

by Tillra   Apr 14, 2011


Crawling through the darkness
Where is my sight?
fleeing from the madness
Where is the light?
All around is dark and cold
no smell, touch or sound
The pitch covers me in its hold
gentle yet firm bound
but wait
its not too late
A spec of light like a star
Dim and small, far
Run! As fast as I can
Or else ill be dammed
It grows! and shines
Too bright! It blinds.
Now forever in darkness...
I will stay
but here i am safe...
from the light of day.

    "Now forever in darkness...
    I will stay
    but here i am safe...
    from the light of day."
    Great ending..

    A lot of people would choose to find the light than stay in the dark. I love how you turned things around here. I think this is a metaphor..? Perhaps running away from love, and you'd rather be hated than hurt.? or maybe you'd rather be ignored than be the center of attention where everyone will only notice every mistake you make..

    I love this piece. 5/5 :)
