Blackness

Why am I always portrayed as this beautiful thing? I want to bring frightening thoughts And see you shiver at my name I want to take you far away And kill your innocent thoughts I want to become your best friend And destroy your master plots I want to see you cry a river So that I may make a storm I want to see the light quiver And the darkness be reborn I want to live a painful life Not to bring beauty to all I am the blackness that roams your mind I am the blackness that stalks your halls I am the blackness that kills you inside I am the blackness that saved your dying soul I am the blackness that will swallow you whole.
