Darkness

I like darkness,

Darkness is my friend,

It does not sympathise

But it covers

Everything.

And when I weep

Into my hands,

I cannot see the tears,

I’m not happy,

Nor sad,

But feeling peace for a million years.

Darkness knows no good and bad,

And has no concept

Of pure and white,

Everything is all one shade,

Black forever in my sight.

Dark reaches out to comfort you,

It will not hurt

Or leave a mark,

Only fools are afraid of it,

I am a friend of the dark.
