dark places.
those places
where we are afraid to tread
where we tend to hear
murmuring noises
and speaking whispers
where we feel is something
yet we can see it not
places which stir in us
a thousand sensations
each of a unique kind
and we know not why
we feel the way we do
are places
that speak to us of a past
of a fear
of a truth that can be seen
just in half
and such places
are not to be shunned
but should instead embrace
their very existence
since they mean things
they have reasons
why they are
and they can do for you sometimes
what real people cannot.
