Darkness

Surrender the soul you hold so dear, To a Goddess of mischief at first sight. Get lost in her shadows, learn to fear, The inevitable incarnation of your plight! Asphyxiate, in this void you entered, Disintegrate in the world you now center. Fragmentation of fallen stars you gathered, To confront your lustful tormentor. Yet, your eyes are deceived once again, Your heart, a marionette, to her whim. Your soul bound by shackles and chains, Depression could never be its synonym. Alas! Dear lad, your will to strive has yet to fade, As your soul ever longs to see a joyous fate.

Wow a Goddess of mischief...I believe we all met her, she introduces herself and then she follows in the shadows. Very deep poem.
