In the Darkness

In the darkness we meet.
In the darkness we seek.
We seek a connection,
A companion with which to speak.
We speak of the past.
We speak of the present, of topics most dearest. 
In the darkness all becomes clear.
In the darkness we meet in fear.
We fear to show our love; A love that cannot come to be.
We are trapped by time and wish to be free.
In the darkness we laugh.
In the darkness we dream.
We dream of futures gone astray.
We escape the world, if only for a few hours we hide away.
In the darkness we lay.
In the darkness we shall stay.
