Darklight

The Medicine came like a dart of pure blackness out of dark space.
I chanced and danced.
I bounced and fought, And sunk and returned, just arriving,
Scared and eager, confused and determined;
Infecting my conciousnes with bitter-sick truth,
Shattering my sense.
Cracking and breaking, pushing and forcing
A wedge of brutal love into my atrophic heart.

Created for Five Minute Freewrite: 'Medicine'.

Excellent poetry! I love the rhythmic beat and the message comes out loud and clear. Applause for the ending.

Thanks!
To be fair, I did wrestle with it a bit after the 5min to get it right...

I can understand. I usually get my poetry draft in the 5 minutes and clean it up before posting.
