The dark place!

I don't want to go to my dark place,
But seems like I don't have a choice...

It's so easy to get lost in there,
The numbness and the deafening quietness,
It doesn't compel you,
to do the right thing...
It doesn't ask you to take a decision,
you can stay afloat there,
drifting for days at a stretch.
Moreover, it gives you a cover,
if at all.. In case,
In case, you decide to stop drifting,
and stand on your feet for a moment,
asking whys and whats?
The reasons and blames will echo,
for all the ones you loved...
Couldn't they do so?
Didn't they realise?
Why did nobody bother to stop me...

I don't want to go to my dark place,
But seems like I don't have a choice...

I don't have to live,
I don't have to care,
for me or otherwise,
And neither does it ask me,
about the courage, I would need,
in case I decide to go back,
or put an end to everything.
Moreover, it gives you a cover,
if at all, in case,
In case, you want to be a passenger,
in your own life...
It happily takes up the wheels,
like an eager teenager,
waiting to get his hands on the steering..

I don't want to go to my dark place,
But seems like I don't have a choice,
Because sneak peeks into it,
Reveal the most sacred truths,
It gives you all the answers you need,
It presents you with the meaning,
you search for,
But oh, it's a shame,
You can't comprehend,
until you are in the light..

But oh, it's a shame,
That not many understand,
That they may not have a choice going there,
But they can come back,
at their own will!!
