Paroxysm

Darkness

Hope you like it.

Standing in Dark feels better,
Than standing in the light.

Darkness helps to see nothing,
But the light makes her see everything.

That everything hurt her sometimes.
It reminds her of times when she is in light.

Dark is loneliness,
Light is hopeless.
For her.

She prefers dark because it has no shades.
Light has many shades.
So many she gets confused.

Dark is one color, Light is of any color.
Dark is hard to see, Light is easy.

People ran after light and she ran after dark.

Yet people don't like her.

She wants to go in light but pull herself back when she sees the different shades.

Her darkness is her friend, lightness is her foe.

A friend can not betray, the foe can betray.
She is afraid to get betrayed.

She wants to be in lightness, yet darkness pulls her back.

She is real in dark.
Feign in light to be real.

People hate her.
People abhor her.
People give her distress.

Light make her frail, darkness had made robust.

Time passes and time changes.
So she also changes.

Yet people's hatred never changes.

She struggles to go in light, but dark pull her back..

Darkness had ensnared her.
She tried to get free but all futile.
She cannot abide by the darkness.

Her darkness is her foe.
Lightness is her friend.

One day she will become her own light in her own darkness.

That day will come fast.

-Z. A.
