Image for the poem Here in darkness

Here in darkness

I've got big dreams for you
But to let them out
Would be considered a sin
Not everyone will not be able to swallow it down
Chocking on what lies behind my eyes
A world that is deliberately dark
Even a box of sixty four crayons
You will never find pitch black
It requires you to go deep into my pores
Beneath my skin, barely scathing the surface of whats in store
Believe me, you'll be sinking more than you can swim
Eyes are black pearls
How far are you willing to drown in them?
Into the abyss, bottom of the sea
Just to retrieve what is to be seen

World hidden from the naked eyes existence

Here is where my wings unfurl
Here is where I'm free
Here is where I no longer am a prisoner
Here is where there is no need for me to explain myself to anyone but me
Here is where there isn't any boundaries
Here is where I escape
Here is where I'm me

I just wanna be loved
For who I am and what I am
In ways one desires
Embracing my darkness
Fighting along your side
Chasing the cyclone, braving your storms
To be held when falling
Knowing the whole time
You got a hold upon my heart
It's grip ceases to relinquish
To be talked of when I'm not around
To be special in your eyes
Just to be fuckin special
And not worry about the world
For ours is bigger than life itself
To bleed in ways that you will also
Cut off your skin and swim ashore
Carve out my chest and offer you my soul, upon our horizon
Filling me up with life
Making sure your lungs are breathing
Feed you my sky from among my black pearls
To love you and surpass certain death himself
He comes unwanted, takes me unannounced
But never will he ever take my love for you
Thats been tattoo into my heart
Even upon my dying breath
It will never wash away
