Why go towards the light, when the darkness is the unknown? Anyone can see what is illuminated, what is apparent to the naked eye, but the darkness is the undiscovered. No one knows, no one understands. Surrounded by the alien. Nothing to absorb. Nothing to perceive. Nothing but hope, desire, and opportunity.
Where is the courage? Will you take the first step? Will you get off the ground and overcome your complacency to see what is to be seen? Will you find the motivation to break the norm? The distance can be overwhelming, but will you find the key to unlock the door? Will you see the glimmer of hope?
Or is that just your imagination? Oh, I see. Don’t worry, it’s just your mind playing tricks on you. It’s nothing but your hope. The hope that there is something to look forward to. The hope that there will be color and brilliance to seek and find. But don’t worry, times are bleak, and that shimmering light is beyond reach, if there even is some radiance. Reality speaks, and speaks clearly: you are alone. The climb must be done alone. No aid, no hero to save.
Damn, do I need something larger than myself. How can this be reality? How can this be love? How can this be an enjoyable life? The only joy I see is sleep, and avoiding reality. If fake is what it takes, then I fake I shall be. To you, oh my soul, do I question and wonder. Where are you? Where is said love? Where is the fitting piece? Show yourself.
