Relate, Reflect and Ruminate: Light Breaking Through
Because sometimes, emotions don’t fit into bullet points and I have a flare for the dramatic.
For those feeling lost in darkness, burdened by shame, and seeking the light.
A morning greets me with sadness
The energy of the world has fallen
Coldness of the void that I once knew
Time passes differently here
Hours? Days? Weeks?
This timelessness overwhelms
Then the dawn arrives but only above the darkness
I see myself in the mirror of the world
Shame washes like crashing waves
But again, this shame speaks in familiar pattern
Furrowed brow and exhaustion artefacts of situation
There is a way from this labyrinth
Moments of clarity are apparent
Rays of light through the cracks in the void
That is from where I fell
Down is up and up is down
Being trapped is falling
The stairs are here and everywhere
Molesting the dark I climb
Step by cold step
The light ever closer
Strength returns to the well
Speed increases as light breaks through
Panting through gritted teeth
My reflection again not distorted
Breath returns, my death not assured
The world again takes form and colour
Should I fall again
The darkness will yield
Regardless
