James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Free verse

Darkness

What about the darkness
I close my eyes and I'm blind 
I see nothing but the Blackness 
Well I don't care I'm everywhere
I just don't see 
But I'm here what about this……
 Darkness 

All the browns and the greys 
And the bronze 
And the purple and the haze
Separates Me from the bright 
From the lights encapsulating numbness 
I can see nothing I'm alone with just myself while all around me the blackness 

 Darkness

Darkens how can I tell when I cannot see alone and gulfton this Blackness 
I'm left in how do I know when I have my eyes closed 
But when I open up my eyes there's a brightness a light 
That shines ever before me and I've chosen to embrace it 
As it,  it lifts me I celebrate in it 
The light now that I can see it keeps me warm it conloses me 
But doesn't try to control me for the lights 
I see gives me liberty once again I believe that I can leave 
Leave the darkness what is good in the lights 
There's nothing but nothing but Shadows numbness 
And no  one in the dark
Do trust in believe in and receive in this light
Open up your spiritual eyes receive 

The LIGHT
