Have you been there, The place called darkness.
Which tries to engulf you, through its embarkness.
Where the warmth around you seems to cease, and Breathes struggle to hold,
Just think for a moment, why is darkness so cold ?

Where you find no light, no trace of ray,
And the nerves to be numb, have just chosen to stay.
Cause it seems frightening, where, Nothing can be seen.
But tell me, is it just the darkness, Or even the lights, similarly have been ?

Where, Mind unconciously freezes, and fear starts to build.
Some thoughts tangently passing by, tries to bury you in guilt.
And when nothing feels burning within,
as if, for that, the spirit had been too old.
That is the only reason, the darkness is so cold.

But, you would call me crazy, if i admit that i love that place,
i have been bruised While walking in lights, not here, at my natural pace.
So here mostly i find, my Ray of hope, Some thoughts, some peace, some solace as if it is gold..
I sleep warmly, when it hugs me, even if the darkness is cold.
