The Discussion

You

Good morning dear
Here I am, your friend
Telling you what you need to know
Giving you every reason not to try
You really shouldn’t try
Even a bit,
Am here.
Every reason to fear is here at your very doorstep
Sit still
Don’t move

You really should have given up by now dear
Am amazed you have the guts to even try to get this far
That’s sheer luck
Now is time to give up
Now is when to give in
That’s a pretty dress you have on
You look better than I have seen you in a while…

May I please have a seat


Lets get real
Hey, you’re so many years old
So much has happened
Hey, we have done this so many times
So many times before
What difference would it make this time?
Haven’t we run out of excuses by now?

Haven’t we tried out so many times this so many times before?
What difference will there be there this time

My turn now

In my mind
The thick dark cloud blankets the room
But in this time without confession to you
My secret. Close to my heart
I want to got to that place I know so well
That corner in the room
There is no light to illuminate the sadness, the darkness
There the creatures of the dark will keep me company
They are good company, they nod their heads in agreement to all I say
As they feast on my house, furniture… on me

You see, if I switch on the lights,
I will have to face the ghosts, the shadows and all I should
I will see you for who you really are
If you are even there in the first place
Is there really anything out there?

Shadows appear only when there is light
Not when there s darkness
Yes darkness is a good option
But the pals of the dark I know so well will flee …
I will be alone
What if the light switch is broken?
What if the bulb is blown?
My cosy corner too will have to go if I stand up to switch on the lights
It will take courage, strength
Do I have it?
I will have to see me in the mirror when I turn on the lights
That beautiful creature so loved
Could I step into the light?
I should
I will
