i lie awake in the crevice of emptiness
i’ve grown comfortable with it
the silence no longer bothers me
it hugs me silently
the darkness kisses me gently
i want to live like this forever
…
a small light has entered the crevice
it curiously bores its head through
like it already belongs
it’s been a while since i’ve seen light
i hesitate
but i can’t seem to hold myself back
…
the light has taken over part of the crevice
it’s so pretty
it hugs me warmly
it fills me up;
in ways the darkness never could
i feel fulfilled
i think i don’t want to be alone anymore
…
the light has breached the crevice
it has taken root in every corner
i don’t mind
it smiles sweetly as if a first kiss
its eyes hold me — almost practiced
i can’t sleep with the light
i can’t stop thinking with the light
something about it seems different lately
maybe it’s gotten comfortable
…
some of the light has left the crevice
i desperately try to grab it
but it seems the harder i try;
more seems to slip away
it only pauses after i feed it gemstones
pieces of me i can’t seem to grow back
i’ve figured out how to contain the leak
this should hold
i’m running out of gemstones but it’s alright
i’m happy with the light
…
the light is gone
i don’t understand
it was still smiling at me yesterday
i gave it gemstones
i gave it my warmth
i gave it my time
i gave it my love
i gave it my life
why has it left
the light needs me
it has to
…
the darkness whispers in my ear
the air is tight
i can’t breathe
where is the light
i can’t see anymore
the darkness disgusts me
the crevice is falling apart
.//@?
where is the light
where is it
where
i can’t see
i need it
give it back
give it back
WHERE ARE YOU
