Perhaps, a Darker Self...

Let me give you what words don’t represent
To shoulder you of burdens needless to bare
Of anything or perhaps of the world to resent
To see a different light of clarity to dare

With a drop to where ripples form
Of a touch to where wavelets will desire
A place where ****** was born
The ever unquenchable tingle of sensual fire

Imagine if you would, envision if you could
This place where neither reality nor dreams can charm
A possibility almost impossible to take root
A one place spiritless in spirit to have come undone 

Where have you belong before?
Is it some place you never wanted once to be?
Of a lifetime to expel to once again recall
Yet to never see what there belong in actuality to see

And I am to you as the dark
A darker side of things in comparison to compare
In comfort only can I soothe the heart
To have a different light of clarity to dare
