of brotherhood and sisterhood
when
the neighborhood
becomes the fiefdom
of doms and subs
no longer
it remains
a respite
for the troubled
love
corrupts
familiarity breeds contempt
never been truer
the
formula
for losing way
is losing way with
friends of the time
not
friends of the truth
who'd call a rant
a
rant
not afraid
of slashes
and burns
to self
an inward lamp
can
never be expected
to provide
light
outwards
truth indeed
shall
set you free

"an inward lamp

Beautiful words and they really struck me. My light has been forever shining out, drowning in shadows for the friends of time.
This was lovely, Thanks for sharing,

A creative writing platform isn't exactly the right channel for troubled souls, seeking therapeutic supports & respite from their inner trauma.
Therapists are qualified clinicians that are trained & formally qualified to proffer that service, and empower those who require that kind of engagement to aide them as opposed to random authors on a web based platform.

true
very true
not all troubled souls are that lucky, to have access to therapists. not all troubled souls need all the therapy. some words of solace does a lot of healing to some.
some just come for an escape, perhaps for a moment or two, and for them that is all they are after.
like music is never was the recommended (complete)'therapy' or 'treatment', neither is the poetry.
refuge is a pit-stop on a journey. nobody's fiefdom.
sharing of perspectives is appreciated. so is the visit.

Those closing two stanzas are poetic perfection, dare I say genius. I must applaud you.

For me at least, A very concise view, n commentary on what transpires in this underground dwelling ..
a poet's eye.
nothing's vague.
nothing opaque.
appreciation of the commentary, of the commentary is held close.
:-)
cold, is the truth.
