Dark
Darker than black in the darkness I see.
In the dark I'm not afraid for the darkness fears me.
Isolated and glaring right at it as it hovers.
Eyes wide open making no use of covers.
I hear it breathe I see it move.
I make out its whispers as I move from room to room.
Lingering there it wonders why I don't flee.
Because nothing is darker than the emptiness in me.
