I’ve always been curious about the dark
It’s seemed so lonely from the start
Although it might seem quite stark
I now see it as an abstract art
It touches me when I’m trying to sleep
And tickles my heart when I’m awake
Even though I feel it running quite deep
I still feel this relentless dull ache
I get lonely in my bed
Especially when fantasies run high
All these racing thoughts in my head
And I don’t even bother to ask why
Because I don’t care to know what this means
All I know is I want it to stay
It’s infected my nightmares and dreams
To the point where I don’t even have a say
Where did this come from you may ask
And to that I think is an excellent question
To face the dark there is no need for a mask
For it believes I’m made in perfection
The dark represents all I know
And all I’ve yet to be
For I know it cannot go
As the in the dark no one can even see
It covers me in uncertainties
But not the painful kind
And I’m glad not one person sees
What goes on when you look in my mind .
