Darkness

Darkness is the ever end,

No Light is left in me to lend,

My heart be gripped in eternal winter ice,

To keep contained a dreadful vice.

In times long past I was with light,

Until those dark and dreary nights,

Locked within a heart gone foul,

I hid beneath a frightful cowl.

The Darkness seeped within my soul,

Repulsed at first but I paid the toll,

The Light did flee my fearful form,

And the beast into which I have transformed.

No emotions light my cold and dying eyes,

And I no longer fear the monsters cries,

He and I are one at last,

No one a final merciful line to cast.

They may never sense my passing,

Those I wished to call my friends,

I shall surely fade to shadows,

Where I truly do belong.

Memories will dull and fade,

My heart rent as if by blade,

Darkness creeps and all is stark,

What creature awaits me in the dark?
