Crossing the Boundary of Darkness
What if we can explore the deep sea and its wonderful life?
Illusory manifestations
In the forefront of my mind
Sounds echoing in a distance
I hear the abyss calling me
Drifting in nothingness
The light projecting the sky’s likeness
-
I’m slipping further through
The boundary of light and darkness
I slowly see my body swallowed in it
No longer visible
Forever seems divisible
From my body
-
Darkness is climbing up to meet me
With loneliness it greets me
Isolating and dreary
The chaos is deafening…
The last light is glistening…
Signalling my surrender
-
The veil of darkness seems heavy
Shrouding everything within
Loneliness levied against all beings
So close, yet so far
Livelihood so bizarre
Cut-off from all around
Blackness is abound
A different world hidden
A world with no sun light
Where life thrives in-spite
Of immense pressure
From above, below, and all sides in tow
The magnificence of life never ceases to amaze
But life tends to act up and glaze
Our vision… with problems so slight
When compared to the world
But to us seem like a plight
When faced with them we curl
-
The metal is creaking and water flowing in
I never wanted to forfeit my life in this tin
Scrambling with tools and button pressing
I was overtaken by my gaze that I’d forgotten
On the ocean I’m intruding and I’m about to be trodden
With massive pressure and weight its impressing
Upon my sub, the true power of nature
Reminding me that this world is beyond my reach for now
An imposter in an alien world
Of wonderful and dark existence

I write fiction, poetry and occasional articles about interesting topics.
Finding interesting ways to write a poem or hide messages within them seems to be my main interesting in writing now, and it's been fun
