My darkness is shrouded from others by the brightness of my daily smiles. It lies motionless deep within the complexities of my mind.
Calm and quiet, year after year patiently waitng for my inevitable weakness to set in and thus granting it the chance to reek havoc within my soul.
A destructive fluiditic Tsunami of chaos, which once released are only coralled by the bricks of my good deeds which I have laid down one by one thru decades of virture, kindness and empathy.
Yet still I fear their certain fail, against the depth of the sin that lay within. Its power it is foerever, pressing aginst aging bricks that so long have been keeping it in.
So forever vigilant, I do good deeds, that forge those bricks, and strengthen those walls that hold back the chaos of my sea of darkness. This shall always be my pennance for all my lifes sins.

Tsunami of chaos / sea of darkness. The writhing tide that is so capable of destruction and yet can lie so peaceful before and after. I felt this piece.

Thank you for your comment Lori, I replied but I am not sure it went thru. I would like to share another one with you. I hope you like it. It is called,
“THE MYTH THAT TIME HEALS ALL”
All my life, I’ve heard the lines, that time will heal all,
that if you manage just to endure, your pain will begin to fall,
But that’s a myth we just tell ourselves, while hoping for better days,
Cause untreated wounds, will always cause scars, that force your pain to stay
So take charge of you, and fight that pain don’t you dare let it win,
Don’t carry those scars of long past times, that is self-inflicted sin.

I didn’t get the first reply. It is a myth, some wounds never heal. But I rather like to think what doesn’t kill us makes us stronger.
