The Dark and Darkness

The light no longer exist Only the dark and darkness is all I see Deep in this under tow or psychotic shade I sit with the obscurity that wicked made to what end Overlooked by veil or disguise a spotlight in reprise this ominous dark curtain drop far beyond center stage a place marked X from the blue sky's to my demise this place is not hell this is dead in denial late for the reaper and one last kiss a dull sinkhole short of the abyss writing in my head a plot and a twist the unreliable and suicidal list darkness steps inside devouring every nerve I hide a paralyzing strangle pressure from every angle suppressed screams die within this predator's dream land breathing escapes me Movement leaves against a constrictions reach speech betrays again sounds intense and stunning listening still the last melody hitting my ear the breaking of bones my shattering frame I did not recognize agony's hiss and surrender soft vibration begins to rattle a growl that began slow made for the roar of a battle Deafening to the Echo inside my head a sensation of hot water dripping hot rain Saliva running off huge fangs waiting the command a Bite deep in flesh again and again deep in the dark I've been set free piece by piece as a hunger feeds a virtual force indeed I suddenly see behind the creature's eyes, my eyes monstrous vision to prey with Precision darkness is everywhere that's where I will be I am the face screaming beneath a crack in the Ice I am the scratch at the surface of you scared pale white I am the movement in the dark you cannot see I am the shine in a child’s smile while hiding a knife I am Still alive, soaked in black and I am not alone I am coming to tuck you in your bed bless you with my kiss to the sound of breaking bones Terry D’Arcy Ryan
