The Darkness Eight

I have them hidden everywhere a basket, the ledge in the shower here there anywhere When I see them now I feel shame for my action, I am only to blame the innocent now knows making it that much harder when the pain and suffering grows I try so hard to push it down deep chain and lock it in the darkness to sleep. When it wakes the fear inside grows longing for that blade is quite the striking blow. I don’t retrieve my shiny friend. For tonight is not the night my life shall end.
