We Speak of Darkness

We speak of darkness

as we speak of light

we speak of darkness

as if it arises

and radiates

like light,

forgetting

as cold is the mere

absence of warmth

dark is the mere

absence of light

and in creating

walls of prejudice

roofs of fear

windows of hate

doors of ignorance

we breed the idea

that darkness

has a protective glow

of its own

not realizing

it is merely feeding off

the maggots of our own

ego

Me and Myself

Work, work, work. Play hard. Take a holiday. Go out. Have you seen the latest? And yet …. I crave to walk the roads, not alone, but in solitude, allowing my mind to breathe, to listen to the quite whispers going on between me and my mind. Between my conscious and subconscious. Every day to get to know myself again, to say a quite hello to myself, and give myself a gentle hug. And seemingly to do nothing. Nothing except just be…..…. for if not, I am no longer active. I fool myself into thinking that the flurry of activity is real. That it gives my presence on this planet worth It is an illusion. For it is just a flurry of reactivity.. It’s like my mind is leaving my heart behind. Often we believe that what happens is so directly related to what we do. Our actions. That is just our Ego. For often our actions are mere reactions. Reactions that actually impede what we set out to achieve. To do. Sometimes, it is good to sit back and believe. Just believe. Knowing that sometimes it is ...
