Dark light

You, the unknown in black who engulfs even the infinite, you have long provoked my nightmares through the darkness of my childhood bedroom. Today, attracted by your absolute nothingness as we are by the hypnotic void, I plunge my gaze into you to pierce your mysterious aura. I still see the authoritative, the frightening and the secret, but now I also admire the soothing, the elegant and the sumptuous.

In your silence, where the unconscious, myths and dreams reside, I find my loved ones and my ancestors who have become Divine. Also my thoughts and desires, fluttering in a choreography of my pleasures and fears.
In your dark, anguished shades, my quest for light is studded with twinkling lanterns, like a dome encrusted with starry diamonds. Their light emerges among the angels, with no need to summon the bright white.

Part of you invites calm, abandonment and reflection, while another, darker part invites anxiety and tormented territories. I let myself be carried away into this mystical immaterial, invisible to the eye, but so visible to the mind.
