Depths

When the stars flicker
Into an infinite darkness,
So will my soul.
It's inevitable,
And my heart knows it.
All the girlish charm
Fades away.
The lies I tell myself
Are dwindling down
To the hard rock-bottom
Of the ocean that is my mind.
They transform into the truths
That hadn't penetrated my conscience
Until now.
It hurts my being
As reality surfaces
To the top
And crushes me to my knees
On the bottom.
My soul
My heart
My mind
My conscience
My being
Are now hand in hand.
They join my spirit,
And the six essences
Of the work of art
That is me
Are together at last.
Although they have traveled far,
They have enough energy
To dive as a whole
Into the depths
Of the part of me
That needs to realize
It's going to be okay.
