Darkest Black

I once dreamt a dream in darkest black. The deep void within the bounds, The endless solitude. No light to guide, but blackness follows Her beautiful maiden, a deathly hallow. Her lurking shadow Feeds off on me. Her gritty teeth piercing Deep inside me. I lay still. Unable, unwilling to move Out of darkness' deepest spell. She lays beside me, Holding me, preserving me. And her sister Light has escaped from me. And so I dreamt a dream of darkest black. Not a nightmare, only a ceaseless passage - Taking me on sleep's miscarriage.
