Dark

in poetry •  7 years ago 

The seconds dripped
From eternity’s broken tap
30 minutes to a new you
The bath chilling
Ammonia scented candlelight
As a darker hue clutches each strand

Diving into darkness
A safe oblivion
Anonymity
There is no bottom in this bath
And I dive to find a hidden chest
Of tomorrow’s soul gems

Forever came too soon
But there is a light from above
Not to follow, but to trust
Trust and wait
