Fear With the Dark

lying alone
dark is the night
dark are my thoughts
dark is my life
embrace my fear
call it near
nurture and love it
share my tears
wait for the light
shine through the room
gone is my fear 
gone is my tomb
vision an angel
from now in the dark
bringing me love 
not fear in my heart
goodbye my old friend
you helped me not much
light is my new love
I wont keep in touch
