Painting the Darkness

the color of Darkness
is only in the state of mind
where tunnels of light are never kind
it slithers through your fingers and doesn't make a sound
it wants to stay and play forever 
but it is only hourly bound
for those who see and those who don't
for those who pretend and others who won't
