Hey look! You can now listen to the poem and read it at the same time!

My Darkness
2007-01-17

i see you, i feel you, i know you,
and you are always there.
but then there is also me,
this darkness that hides in the recess,
that refuses to show itself to the world,
and shows itself to all at once.

no matter what i try to do,
i can’t run away from you,
so i have to face you,
and its now or never.

if i can’t find a way to live with you,
my darkness, my destruction,
than i must find a way to destroy you,

and i know that will only be done,
with help from the outside.

leave me depression, leave me, please.

James O. Stewart
