The Anatomy of Darkness

Darkness envelopes me, Folds in all around, How beautiful is the blood that spills, Again, and again, And again. I wish I could crawl back, Into that corner of mine, And feast upon the white light of others, For my light is only grey, I’m falling, Falling, falling, But I still don’t hit the ground. Hear my scream, As droplets of salt roll down my cheeks, I crawl fiercely out of my corner, That corner which always gave me comfort, Risking everything, So that when I fall again, I will fall up, Fall up into the light.
