Dear Darkness,

I'm sorry I didn't call you today. So I'm writing you a letter. I know that you and I are tethered because you always seem to embrace me when the lights I reach for fade. It's almost as if you protect me and I forsake you. For that I'm sorry. We aren't meant to be together. One day, if I'm lucky I'll find someone that doesn't fade when I need them the most and when they break me apart you won't have to pick up the pieces like you have for years when I close my eyes right and hold my chest in pain. I see you. I feel you. I know you don't mean to hurt anyone but it seems people only love you while you're making them feel safe. For that I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I'm the light you cling to that will fade when I find the light I reach for.

Love, Darkness's Very Special Light.
