The Dark Place

there exists a corner

within my mind

a nook in my conscious

a crook in my spine

within this junction

there lives no light

no laughter nor love

nothing to survive

just a single wooden chair

alone in this hide

I remain during hardships

perhaps for all of time

but one cannot know

by the look in my eye

if it is here that I stay

or it is within this dark place

in which I reside
