In Darkness
Sitting in darkness,
Ashamed of the light,
I’m dirty as coal,
In the black of the night.
Days stretch out,
They are endless,
The nights go too fast.
And I stand as a witness,
There’s blasts from the past.
Flashbacks seem to linger,
Fear, hatred and anger,
As I turn on myself.
And the pain’s just too much,
When the memories come crashing.
I find no release, no escape,
The waves just keep smashing…
I’m a member of the best writing community online. It’s called the Ninja Writers Club . If you’re a writer, you should really check it out. There are lots of awesome classes, write ins, accountability, and just the feeling of being in a community of people who love writing just as much as you, is pretty amazing.
I really can’t explain how much this community has helped me. My writing quality and productivity has improved dramatically. Seriously.
