shelter me, darkness

These are the moments I dread,
The times in which
My greatest fears are rekindled;
The enternal flame burning inside me
Grows scalding.
How I wish to banish
These feelings to the cavernous
Recesses of my soul.
But alas, I cannot.
I am gripped by such a
Paralyzing sense of
Loneliness that all light is
Swallowed, and the darkness'
Appetite is endless.
The seldomly-held joys are
Portrayed in such a cynical light
That all seems for naught.

I go crawling
Into the darkness,
Falling down, begging and pleading
To finally be accepted.

The darkness consents,
And we are one.
