Just Another Piece Of Mind Towards A Paradox Of Endless Philosophy Poem by James Darwin Smith II

In-between the scars of today
Lies yesterday's silence
The burning for which exists
In the ire of these very emotions
Smothering me with past yearning
With past regret

Will everything just fade away?
Do I really want them to?

Malicious as it all may be
A part of me wants to keep them;
The very canyons that have dropped this silent existence;
Into a deepened seclusion of lost opportunities


And so starts the battle
Of me vs. myself vs. me
Striving to mend myself free
So the stars can shine brighter than ever before
Settling the score against my own Demonic metaphors
The hauntings of a cold embrace upon a dirge's nocturne mourning

Wherever I am now and then
The light of me shall always take away the moments of self-darkness

Yet, misery has always made me feel so safe and secure

No, I must brave on strong
Explore within myself many journeys ahead
Digging deeper than I have ever dug deep before

I felt all of the paltry heartbreak that I can take
Now this heart shall learn to flow
Towards uncharted skies full of unlimited epiphanies

Negativity, I never want to see you again
Will you be back?

Hopefully upon your return I will be ignorant to your own chagrin

Making sense, what is that?
Is life just all make pretend?
