Questions of the unsure
By maxstrife
Slipping into darkness with no way out,
the world I know seems to
fade away,
the colors are gone and replaced with gray,
soon
it darkens and light is dim,
and soon the darkness will truly set
in.
Your eyes on me and You I cannot see,
I begin to
wonder what interest you have in me
why you'd want to dominate
me,
is it my freedom you seek to take, and make me yours to break.
I feel at a loss and know not what to do,
my head
full of doubt and my heart beats with fear,
what is the answer to
the mystery here.
Give unto you and your desire, give in to my
fear and run away,
this is a choice to my dismay.
I
need to think, a time out,
to work out all my doubt,
I ask
the same old questions in my mind,
do I stay in the world I call
light,
a place i am on my own,
or do I give in to the world
I call night.
where I am submissive and a slave and punished if I
misbehave.
Here I stand in purgatory
the world of neutrality,
and question the concept of my reality.
Who am I?
where
do I belong?
Maybe deep inside I know the answer
and
want to start,
but the doubt and fear fill my heart prevents me
from making a startÂ

A pure outward representation of the thoughts and questions you have regarding the nature of things. It's superb. I can't say I like one part more than the next thought, because the entire work is incredible.
