Darkness welcomes me with arms built like home.
I'm the only one invited, but i know i'm not alone.
He sits there patiently, like this was part of my plan.
I urge myself to leave, but i don't think i can.
He smirks and his smile taunts me like a game.
This feeling is so familiar, yet it is one i cannot quite name.
I try to escape, put the door is forever closed.
Will I make it out alive? Nobody knows.
