Love Within The Darkness

Touch me tonight
Can't see the light
Darkness so strong

Feel your heartlight
Share it with me now
Blindness scares me so

If you can't show and tell, at least you can touch and feel! The heart will find a way!

Brilliant, Richard. You are really tapping into Kerouac's psychology. There is nothing like feeling alone and in the dark when and while you still have the ability to share time and with words with people. I suspect somehow spent his waking hours with this feeling. Brilliant verse!

Very happy to hear that you believe that I'm really tapping into Kerouac's psyche. This is so very important in this final stretch. I suspect that you're right on with your observations about how Kerouac felt in his waking hours.
