this will be over, and
nostalgia's cool air has come
calling before its time.
Can we truly overcome the deep darkness within us and around us?
Is certainty even possible?
Can we complete the unattainable task of defeating this darkness?
The darkness of uncertainty, of emotions, of the future.
Aren't we all fighting the darkness? The large cloud of loneliness that thrusts us desperately upon each other? The overpowering grey of insecurities? The blinding faith?
More and more it seems to me that it is the simple things that are able to diminish the darkness around and within.
I just hope that it is these leaps unto the unknown that will bring healing in their own small way. Perhaps, in acceptance of relationships, of changed plans, perhaps in the sorrowful surrender of a tired faithless soul, there is resolution.
