TRU KNOW TIME.


THIS IS HALF THE PATH’S LENGTH

“You, you were hardly in anything a fair laden,
always one so hesitated and shyly waiting.”


And the day…

there sunbeams dreamt themselves through the woods
and finding something worthy my will to live for again

And the night…

when our tears took their embraces around beauty
while time withered down in our own night-still safety


Coming silently grasping in derided years,
alike the life-giving shadows risen images
fumbling on inside all of light’s night-brushes


Stuck. A new dreary moment here stands.


DIMMED! Am a hindered light, so languished…
Reserved… Played before darkness’s rays.
Scattered. Tearing down the collapsed.

Still drinks the broken glance of all sunshine
and waits through the fondling gleaming light


(Got here to pass mine’s turn
in an unsolved movement reluctantly light-painted
for this is half the path’s length.)

A dark, dark poem. But it seems like there's a light at the end? I wouldn't know. I'm too enamored by the flowing voice your poems read in.

This comes across to me as a meditational poem, where you have recounted the stream of thoughts that your consciousness encountered from the ether. I'm interested in how darkness can have rays: Maybe you have an enlightenment about that?
Blessings and love, Allen
