    i will not fear (when my eyes are blind)

    i will not fear when the light goes dim
    for in the darkness i can swim
    a blackend sea of nothingness
    a empty space where i exist
    i have the dark inside of me...
    shadows to guide and see for me...
    with the dark my spirit binds
    i will not fear when my eyes are blind...
    the dark will comfort and keep me safe...
    and end my pain in a quiet place
    a touch of cold upon my breath
    and on my lips the kiss of death
    i submit myself to an eternity
    of darkened eyes and silenced screams
    where my razor thoughts no longer slice
    no longer stabbed by the thorns of life
    a place where i can finally sleep
    without the pain of being me

    Dano - I really like this one - another in depth account of a tortured soul .... escaping into the darkness to find comfort from one's self. You certainly have a way with words my friend! Another great job! ..........Ken

    Perfect ending. The pain of being me. Takes it beyond the normal tormenting endurance and shows an affliction not so easily curable. Rhyme flow was solid, and the word choices don't feel forced. Well done.

    once again thank you!

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
