Where The Dark Is Deep

In the shadow's embrace, all light does yield,
To the silent whispers that the dark does wield.
A cloak of night, where stars dare not gleam,
Where dreams twist to nightmares, and screams.

Beneath the moon's pale and watchful eye,
Lies a truth too stark, where hopes die.
A realm of echoes, of things lost,
Where frost grips the heart, a bitter frost.

In this abyss, where shadows reign,
The silence roars, a haunting refrain.
A dance with despair, a flirt with dread,
Where the past lingers, and the future's fled.

So tread softly, where the dark is deep,
For in its keep, secrets creep.
A world unseen, yet felt in the soul,
Where the darkest tales, are silently told
