Yours reminded me of Rilke's below. It also gives rise to the question for me of whether or not there is an individual self that is free from the collective. If not are all traumas shared? Is this the darkness that Rilke is referencing that draws us to each other as one?
"You, darkness, that I come from
I love you more than all the fires
that fence in the world,
for the fire makes a circle of light for everyone
and then no one outside learns of you.
But the darkness pulls in everything-
shapes and fires, animals and myself,
how easily it gathers them! -
powers and people-
and it is possible a great presence is moving near me."
I have faith in nights.
