Lady of Darkness
Lady of Darkness
She sat in the dark in an overstuffed chair
Though the stuff in the seat was no longer there
A bottle of vodka and a bottle of rum
A chair in the darkness was her rule of thumb
As the shadows grew darker, the bottles grew lighter
As she tried to lighten the darkness inside her
Till only the chair and the bottles remain
With the lady of darkness no longer in pain
