The Darkness

Alone I walk thru the darkness.
Wrapped in the arms of night.
Searching for forbidden kisses.
That will take me away from the light.

I feel the pain wash round me.
I call out, and beg for release.
He comes from the darkness to sooth me.
I know that in death I’ll find peace.

His hands are like magic upon me.
He pull’s me into his embrace.
I beg for the moment of pleasure,
That will signal my fall from grace.

He covers me there in the darkness
This being who can’t stand the day
He drains me with nary a whisper.
I feel my life slipping away.

Drink deeply I plead in the darkness.
Drink deeply, till agony wanes.
Drink deeply till nothing is left here.
Till blood… washes away all my pain.

But, fate and he are cruel masters.
To leave me alone with my life.
Left to face forever in darkness.
Pain; I couldn’t bear in the light.

    Wow.........wonderful write.......How depthful.
    But fate and he are cruel masters.
    To leave me alone with my life.
    Left to face forever in the darkness.
    Pain; I couldn't bear in the light.
    I can relate to this stanza all to well. You put this together with such simplicity but you have been able to capture such an enormous depth......I really like this one....The hand of death that extends a worse one that you can't imagine......life. Awesome writing........thanks........lisa anne
