I Love the Darkness
I love the darkness
It has always been my friend
It makes me feel
Like a kid again.
It takes me back
To days of my past
When my room was a stage
And I was the cast.
A princess I am
Dawning a crown
My covers pulled tight
They were my gown.
My imagination ran wild
Only dreams of a child.
A vision of a prince
I've never seen since.
The security of home
I was never alone.
These images of mine
I would simply rewind.
How grand to be a girl again
And make believe is my friend.
Brought to life in my mind
One frame at a time.
