Fear of the Night

Blackness flies with wings of a dead fire Blackness dies in the core of the dawn But is not forgotten Because no matter how glorious the light No matter how profound and bright Blackness will sing its renaissance in the last breath of dusk In the last drop of the bleeding horizon And you know it And you fear it Because crawling within the depths of blackness is a creature of uncertainty A ghost of the unknown And it howls from the crevices of blackness The blackness loves to watch as you cower and cry and run It laughs at your fright Cackles at your tremor of trepidation But it's nothing but a play to stray you afar Because even though you fear the blackness The blackness fears you
