Filling It With Poison
#WritcoPoemChallenge
The time between dusk and dawn,
The time between night and morn,
I travel beyond places unknown,
All for my new self to be born.

All around the world,
To all the darkest places.
Each place has its own yummy poison,
Couldnt leave one untasted.

The darkness in me,
Screams for a light.
Poison is the only thing it wants
And it screams louder at night.

When the moon shines bright,
I have no choice but to fight.
I've fed it every poison now
But none have felt right.

After learning the darkness
Is here to stay,
That forever it lives in me
Till my death day,

I chose to search further.
Beyond the poisons easily found,
For another light to put in me
And I have to search all around.

I haven't found it yet,
But I can see my darkness again,
Without a chemical shield.
Now it's my darkness I need to befriend.

I need to own it, love it, and
Travel round the world once more.
Come back w my darkness unfilled
Then maybe I will find myself reborn.
