Darkness

Light me deep
where the chasms run steep
as I drop into a bottomless space
staring at a crowd with no face

Light me deep
where my darkness spreads so strong
I shudder to step inside
My fears overpower since long

Light me deep
As I stumble and fall
where there are shadows of the life's twisted turns
gazing me unaware, making me stall

Light me deep
As I melt within me
Darkness swallowing slyly
As I stand in a world bright and shiny

Light me deep
For the stars light the sky
And the moon softly bequeaths me
There are depths it doesn't reach
Layers it cannot impeach

Light me deep
So that I can be with me
Unhindered, untethered and unhinged
So that when my lips curve
And you see me smile
the sparkle comes from deep inside me...
