Dark Knight

Life and Love, sounds synonymous. But there are times we wake up on the disturbing side of life. Optimism out the window, darkness ebbing into your soul. No particular reason for this (at least not one that you can pin point). Now, this is not the sudden eruption of anger where you almost enjoy the blinding darkness that envelops you. It's not the blanket of rage that you feel is justified. No no. This is the quiet, creeping and seeping of something inexplicable into your heart that leaves you tittering dangerously on the edge of hate and you just wish this venom would go away. You question yourself. Is this "The Human nature is naturally evil" that everyone keeps yapping about? Yes, there are times you do wrong knowingly but this is much worse. This is the unsettling feeling in your heart that you feel is foreign.
In some countries, they make quite an issue of this and even give you drugs for it. Everyone experiences it, but only people diagnosed by some professional worry about it too much , even making a bigger mess of it. Those that consider themselves "normal" believe they'll find a solution to it and their "mood" will eventually go away. Either way, it happens to everyone. And... it eventually passes. Trick is, what to do in the meantime? So, for those who take something, take it, For those who do something, Do it, For those who call someone, call them, for those who write something, .....................


Dark...... Uninspired
Loving life, Hate in sight
Battling heart, warring fight
No visible reason or plight
Just the creeping feeling inside

Call it mood, call it nature
Either way, its no pretty picture
Being around others is sheer torture
Cannot discuss it, want no lecture

Is so bad, that I cannot even compose
A good poem, I cannot fathom
For my mood it cannot atone
And so, I shall have to leave it alone

So for now, I shall retreat
To my dark haven, smelling defeat
and next time, will not be dead beat
and will be about how life is such a treat
