Sometimes…the darkness is beautiful,
Sometimes…the darkness is comforting,
Now I understand the beauty of the light but I’ve always realized I grow most in the darkness,
Through the darkness I’ve came to terms that I’ve had self love issues,
Excuse me, have self love issues,
Through the darkness I’ve realized not everyone is who they say they are,
Their aliases are constantly changing,
Through the darkness I’ve realized depression is something difficult to deal with..specifically when love ones are telling you it’s just a phase..you’re going through,
Well this moon is not ok sometimes, this moon may be full, but not full of optimism.
Sometimes, this moon is envious of the sun,
Envious of all the attention the sun receives as if it was the youngest sibling,
The light is looked upon for growth,
The darkness is looked down on for pain & suffering,
Yet without the pain, suffering, the setbacks, there is no growth, there is no light,
So understand the beauty of the darkness,
Understand the darkness is not all bad,
Understand the darkness can lead to beautiful things,
The darkness breeds success,
I’m sure Bruce Wayne could attest to it,
Darkness may not always be understood,
I’ve stood under the microscope of judgment for my dark ways,
And the observations concluded,
That my darkness & lightness are quite similar,
Yin & yang,
I’m positive my negatives bring forth my positives,
Ying yang,
I find the whispers I hear in my ears,
Is just society playing tricks on me,
Telling me my darkness is bad,
CNN & FOX telling me that,
Racist news coverages,
Stay covering,
Up..the true value of the people who skin resemble the color of the mud,
Someone tell them keep that negativity towards the south end of the pole,
Though I’m not new to it,
I’m not going to get use to it,
Its time the world understands that this moon,
Its time the world understands that this man…
Are one in the same,
Darkness from my interior matches the darkness on my exterior,
No black on black crime,
My black on black shines,
And I…….
