Protective Darkness
It was a million years ago
I walked out of the light
Left everything, I cared about
The darkness wrapped around me
Feeling so much like Death’s shroud
I never looked back at my past
Never looked toward my future
The darkness became a womb for me
And I had no desire to leave it
So, here I stay
A part of the darkness that surrounds me
Just as it is a part of me
