Garden of Gloom

Life goes on smoothly, so it seems. On the facade it all so seems smooth and clear. But as you go deep inside the darkness falls upon you. It tries to engulf you and tries to scare you away. Have you ever wondered ‘Why’? Ever wondered what is the reason behind the darkness’ behavior? It wants to scare you off, because it is itself scared of something… Something that might change the darkness into pristine light, and darkness fears that this change might be transitory. Something that neither I can nor I want to put in tangible figure.

But once you (somehow) gather the necessary courage and take a plunge in this darkness. You’ll find yourself one with it. The darkness doesn’t engulf you; it just covers you in order to protect you. . You, too, become the darkness. And you’ll find a garden with a crystal swan in the middle of this darkness. The eternal beauty of this swan can be admired even in the company of radiance. But her gloom can be seen only if it is enclosed in absolute darkness. Because the darkness is absolute, it allows no shadows and nothing to divert your sanity. So all you can do is ponder on the swan and, sooner or later, you’ll see her tears. Darkness shows you the pain, the grief, the gloom…
The darkness welcomes you wholeheartedly, welcomes you to its’ Garden Of Gloom.
