Everything is black.
Its all covered in darkness.
But I don't mind one bit.
I happen to love that darkness.
I love the way it conceals everything.
Hiding it away so no one can ever find it.
Or how it consumes anything.
Leaving nothing behind as everything vanishes.
I love how I can hide myself in that darkness.
How I won't be disturbed because I won't be seen.
It keeps me safe.
Safe from the cruel world I know.
Safe from the hurt and depression.
Safe from what I fear and hate.
It may be cold but that makes it all the more welcomed.
Why not join me?
Follow me into that dark abyss.
Escape your sorrows and regrets.
You can leave if you want.
But I'll still be here.
I'll stay in the darkness.
I'll never go back.
I feel safe.
Too safe to leave.
People join me everyday in this darkness.
So why don't you?
You'll love this dark world, I'm sure of it.
Its peaceful.
Isn't driven by madness like you think.
Its calm.
Not like the outside world we dread.
I'll stay here forever.
Forever.
In that dark world.
