Darkness
I fell asleep and woke with a panic attack an hour ago. It has been a while since that has happened. I think I understand the origin of its insistence, but I still feel jarred by the fierce landing of my consciousness from sweet sleep to biting reality.
"Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people." Carl Jung
I have spent years learning to light my own darkness. Sometimes I wonder if I have learned anything at all other than the hell of my inner being. The taste of my own terror. And the clambering beat of my disquieted soul.
