The Dark Side (1992)

A Poem by Katseye

The Dark Side

 

All I know is the dark side;

Of human nature.

Always searching for the good in people;

Finding only darkness.

I found one who seemed to be only good.

It wasn't enough for me,

I simply couldn't trust.

Everyone has a dark side.

I had to find his.

You find what you look for.

I searched for the good;

When I found it,

I had to find it's dark side.

Did I really want to find the good?

I don't know.

I know too much of the dark side.

Too much of its pain.

So much so that the goodness scares me,

And the darkness comforts me.

It's only human nature to seek comfort in the familiar.
