Bathing in the ocean of darkness
Once I just saw the beauty in melancholy
Now Im drawn to despair obsessively
Im bathing in the ocean of darkness
It's dangerous
Cause soon I may drown
The darkness overshadows the light
Until it's gone completely
The ocean floods my mind
Until the last ship of happiness has been taken away by the darkest of waves
I need to shield the dark waves
I need to find the light
But the darkness controls me
One side of me doesn't want the light
It wants to bathe in the ocean of darkness,
The sea of sorrow,
The river of regret,
The lake of loneliness,
The pool of pain,
The flood of fear,
The wave of woe
This might kill me
Or take away my soul

The lake of loneliness,
The pool of pain,

Thank you but usually I can't write that well. It was just a brief moment of inspiration

All the poetry I write is usually inspired but still very poor .
Keep inspired, feels good don't it? Chase that feeling . Let the writing come to you

I could feel the frigid cold taking a midnight swim in this ocean of darkness. Still you can find such intense passion in the dark. Why are we drawn into the darkest of waves? even as they pull us under. They do have a way of controlling you, calling you, even though you may drown. You find yourself in so many different bodies filled with sorrow, regret, loneliness, pain, fear, and woe; drowning over and over in so many different ways and so many places.
