The foundation is cracking
and the walls are crumbling around me.
Windows shatter, releasing
long held fears that I have imprisoned.
For years, I spent fortifying the dams
to house the memories that threaten to drown me.
And now it's all breaking
and reflecting back to me my darkest secrets.
They threaten to unearth me
to consume and destroy the infrastructure,
the very essence of my being.
And I revel in the interlude
between the darkness and the light.
I wait for the putrid dark to return
dripping with self loathing.
But maybe the fracturing of my mind will
bring forth the light instead of the dark.
To infuse my soul with peace
and contentment. And maybe, just maybe,
I can let go of these thoughts and move on with my life.
