 The Magician
The darkness we can find in the back of our minds
Literally makes us see in a different color
At times, we have no choice and the blackness
engulfs our souls
We start asking ourselves what is this all for?
Nothing makes sense in our confusion of color change
We get tired of 'Living
Once in this state of mind, I swam out into
the ocean without the thought of coming back
If it is not pain that I felt, it was hopelessness
I kept wondering, who would miss me?
The ocean would not take me though..
It spit me back to the shore..
Lying cold and wide awake..shivering in darkness
Then I awoke lying safe in my warm bed
Not in the flesh did I do this, but in my mind
My mood was as black as a cold piece of coal..
When all I wanted to feel was the fire 'red of
a hot simmering coal
Hiding away with my tired mind
Hiding away in flesh from the world around me
What could fix my mind?
Was I broken?
Was I made defective?
Nothing made sense to my weary soul
Living like a zombie...like the walking dead
Nothing could quench my thirst for light
Seeking a magic potion to make me whole
I turned into somewhat of a mad scientist..
Mixing brews and hopeful potions of healing..
Studying formula recipes to create a magic for my soul
A miracle of a sound mind
I said my spell mantras..
Unto the 'Great Physician'
Chanting words not understood
Magical words that revealed unto me
a Potion'
Science, Medical Miracles, Philosophy, and my Mantras:
I turned all of those into a substance that cast out darkness
I spent years mixing and testing my potions on myself
Until one day..I came upon a form..
A small form..one which I put upon my tongue
Then I chanted the spell, to make it potent
My hands arched unto Heaven...
Thankful...for in them..I had held..
A Miracle

DS:
You never cease to amaze me. Your thoughts are
that of an older more experienced soul. Where do
you come up with this prophetic insight???

hi difficult...
i think we all go through phases - sometimes up, sometimes down.
it is important to recongnise the 'down' parts because they can affect how we deal with others, our productivity and so many aspects of our life. i don't think that anyone wants to be in the 'blackness'... it can be a frightening state.
cheers!
:)

Girl!
You so well describe that feeling that I simply call depression. There are just some days when it can't be fought...some days, I have to just go with it.
Love the music choice!!
Love you!
:)

That was a great piece... so much in there I felt drawn to as if I was there and feeling it... I feel as if I have felt alot of those things, maybe that is why it touched me so. 5 stars.

If you were a sculptor or then again, no,

Or a women who sold potions in a traveling show.

This comments not much but it's the best I can do.

My gift is this post and this one's for You.

This was so great. I really liked it a lot...My favorite lines were...

Then I awoke lying safe in my warm bed
Not in the flesh did I do this, but in my mind

Amazing job with the words and imagery. I could visualize it in my mind. It definitely connected with something deep within me. I always enjoy reading your work when I have a moment which hasn't happened much in the last few months though since I've been going through some not so pleasant stuff.
