it's just a bad idea and no matter the day
it's a nice shot of me, grinning blank at those who pray
it's all random happenstance and gravity and days of gray
it's a tune without the moon and it's a path that's lost it's way

it's a whisper gone unheard and a scream that dreams of life
it's a wonder, wandering, sauntering by dressed in sparkly bright
it's a darkness in the darkness that makes blackness look like white
it's a beautiful catastrophy, a poisonous delight

it's a miracle that died at birth in wide-eyed disbelief
it's a nightmare in the daylight and it's sharpening it's teeth
it's a crime within a smile like a murderer's relief
it's a horrible rejoicing and it's feeding on good grief

it's a hallucinating illusion that never magic tricked
it's a reason for uneasy, it's eternal and it's sick
it's a choice that seems so obvious but it's sneaky and it's quick
it's a chance that needs a second glance like Tock depends on Tick

the darkness in the darkness.

Each and every line of this piece of poetry
is itself addicting...
reading through each stanza
feels like a falling into a trance
deepening....
"it's a path that's lost it's way"
"it;s a beautiful catastrophe , a poisonous delight"
and many more such awesome lines...
but the best one...
"it's a darkness in the darkness that makes blackness look like white"
You are "one of a kind"
and you have created a miracle.

Mesmerizing. Good descriptives. Exquisite opposition in each line. I must read again!


Keep it up.
