Darkness
I miss the darkness and it misses me
We hold on to each other, even before we meet
A sunrise is a temporary hurdle to get through
I love the darkness and it loves me
We miss each other terribly when daylight reigns
A few torrid hours to let pass, let go
I save the darkness and it saves me
We hide in each other where no-one can see
A safety space we both deem it to be, solid and free
I fear the darkness and it fears me
We each are afraid of how we need each other
A solid ship sinking us in sordid dependence
I dream the darkness and it dreams me
We create scenes nonexistent to soothe me
A short respite from reality, tomorrow maybe
I breathe darkness and it breathes me
We lay back tears soaked in ecstasy
All bits brutally shattered and patiently gathered again
I taste the darkness and it tastes me
We swallow ourselves and relish the emptiness
A scene seldom seen or heard but always felt
I am the darkness and it is me
We cannot separate it from it from me
A hybrid reborn and redone each and every time
I know the darkness and it knows me
We both know our dance has got to wait
A new song will play till we meet again
