For people who know me and people who don't
My secrets are in my own darkness
And if you choose
You may learn about them
All I ask is one thing in return:
TRUST
The darkness can hold many things
from monsters and terrors in the night
to the places that cause profound awe and wonder
I can show you these things and much more
My secrets and dreams lay bare at your feet
Be careful where you would tread
Cause you tread on my secrets/dreams...
But don't be afraid
with me as your guide
I can show you the pitfalls and sights
Trust in my guidance if you wish to learn my darkness
For I can show you beauty beyond comprehension
and terrors that crystalize you to your core...
I guess the real question is do you trust me?
A person who is willing to share his secrets/dreams
Seems a little far-fetched...
A person who would let him be vulnerable
But you see... I trust in you
Your ability to have compassion
and help my tortured mind...
Everyone is unique and bring their own views to life...
I am counting on that... Your input is needed...
Are you willing to step into the darkness and embrace it?
The choice is yours...
Peace...
DarkOne
