Darkness: the Real Ghost

Darkness beyond the darkness
Darkness shivers us in nightmares, 
Darkness the ghost forever, 
Darkness the past forever, 
Darkness for the prisoner
Darkness the life threatener, 
Darkness the black forever, 
Darkness the fear wherever, 
Darkness is the blunt memory, 
Darkness is the null memory, 
Darkness gives wounds apart, 
Darkness can heal all the part, 
Darkness gives birth to sunrise, 
Darkness gives new surprise

Perhaps all life stems from the dark seeking out the light and hope for more. Nicely done.
