Hello Darkness, my old friend
I did not recognize you
in your new disguise.
The guise of flesh
does not suit you, my friend.
It makes you seem pallid and weak,
though your hands
do grasp my throat so tight.
Why did you return, old friend,
and take my husband's place beside me?

I like this! A really good interpretation of the title, I like were you took this.
This is one of those poems, that although brief, a lot of dimension. The sadness in this poem runs very deep. A great write, thanks for entering my contest. Good luck! -
