again, i wrote this some time ago

it is impenetrable

it wraps around my soul.......cold

a complete lack of light

like a wind

touching me, but untouchable by me

it has no boundaries

it is nothing

and

it is all encompassing

it’s feeling is so familiar

I know it

maybe it is not just around me

maybe it is me

or at least

a part of me

I do not fear it when it descends into my being

maybe it awakes and shows itself to me

just sitting there

I stare

I feel

my heart becomes heavy

this could be that which when endured

makes me stronger

more understanding

more wanting of the light

at least

more appreciative of those things of the light

goodness

maybe not all of the darkness

the abyss

is bad

just without

just immense

lonely

desolate

another part of the whole

to show one’s true center

to hone one/s strength

the weight to lift

to gain strength

the strength one needs

to help

to continue

to love
