Darkness,

A shadowy mist

Clouding my mind

And tearing at my heart

To will me closer to it.

Darkness

It warms my skin

But I know

Its intentions are ill

I can feel it.

Darkness

A comforting spirit

Welcomes me

To fade into death,

Into the void of my mind

Death

Sings to me

Urges me

To release my emotion

And to free my body.

Death

Cradles me to come

Follow it

Into the maze of my soul

And my mind.

Death

Leads me to a place

A place to rest

My weary mind

To fall into nothing
