darkness is a funny thing

we sleep in darkness

we watch films in darkness

we even dream in darkness.

but sometimes darkness can be a persons worst nightmare.

a fear undoubtedly terrifying.

some people say people aren't actually afraid of the dark,

but what might be lurking in the darkness.

i am afraid of what might not be there.

what if i wake up, and the love of my life is gone?

what if i wake up, and they never existed in the first place?

maybe it isn't the darkness at all.

maybe it is the fear of solely being alone.
