Darkness

Written in 2007

Darkness
You haven't seen darkness
You have only had a taste

Darkness
Is what I keep for myself
Not wanting to expose

Darkness
Surrounds my heart
And wraps me tight

Darkness
Though it may sound odd
Is my comfort

Darkness
Shows me myself
Shows me others

Darkness
Veils my face
Allowing me to see you

Darkness
Reveals to me
Who you are

Darkness
Is your haven too
You cannot escape

Darkness
Lets you be who you are
The one no one else sees

Darkness
Between you and me
We are the same
