Empty Corners
If it is so dark I
cannot see
How then, do I know
it is the dark that envelops me?
I cannot touch these
invisible walls & yet it denies my eyes
From seeing all that
lies beyond.
So how can it be that
I am free to walk through this black oxygen
To seek and find for
myself, but not for fear?
And so I sit here in
the silent company of darkness daring not to move
For when I stand and
reach for light, it strikes me down without word
So down I stay this
time to sit and wait
For what I do not
know.
Maybe the tallest of
all ladders so that I may climb
One rung at a time
and reach the mountainous sky
To kiss the moons
milky white face and taste a little on my lips
Just enough to
illuminate my heart and spark my soul
To light my path
& lead me safetly from the dark where
I have been lost for
so long.
