Darkness

The feel of darkness is toxic

Raw, mournful, and isolated

It seizes in fissures of cold

Silence crawling along trembling profiles

It hides cutting secrets and unknown shivers

It only blinds those who refuse to open their eyes

It is the scattered dance of fear

Where voices are sliced by knives that carve words

It liquefies stable, challenging eyes

It submerges horizons in tainted venoms

The faint adhesion of hope shriveling at the haze of dusk

Its where names are lost on the desperate tongues

Shortening breathe from a hollow body

It freezes from the bones

Spreading to the mechanical heart

Withering away tired cries
