Darkness creeps in A negative thought perhaps That has came and gone And you are left with a bad feeling Residual hurt Accept and let go Ride the wave Or try to figure it Is it metaphysical Is it badness or a feeling of badness Is it existential dread Unbearable possibilities Distraction or analysis Replace with the positive Step outside in the light See a loved one's face Breathe Accept and let go You are alive Enjoy it Share that joy Do what you love Another bad feeling Push through Don't internalise It's not a sign Not one that defines you Push through Accept and let go Breathe Step outside in the light See a loved one's face Hug someone Don't let the negative emotion define you Do some good Align with your values Push through You'll be ok don't run from it Don't feed it accept and let go. #poetry #works Published 10-2-2026 Written on https://freewriter.app
