Darkness

It surrounds me day and night;

Yet, I'm not afraid of it

It does not suffocate me,

Rather, it sets me free.

I like this constant companion of mine.

It surrounds the most beautiful and the most damaged...

Must be something soothing about it.

Something calming in the shadows...

A monster that asks nothing in return,

Except for acceptance.

The inky swirls of ancience,

The strong billowing volcanic ashes promising nothing but death.

The depths of Hell - cold, unrelenting and burning.

Endless night flowing in my veins.

The nebulous mysteries of the universe within it.

The void, entrancing, mesmerising....

The glorification of death -

The starfall.
