Love came in once before
Like a thief in the darkness
That comes through the door
Wrapped in the night it wore,
Still I was neutral to the darkness

Had I known the price love would claim
An offering of all that is bliss
Would I have still remained?
To enjoy the pleasure and the pain,
Still I was neutral to the darkness

Away with love I would send
Falling into the blackness
Those times would never end
Those nights, they would never end,
Still I was neutral to the darkness

Everything changed in my eyes
From the innocence to the sweetness
Blinded by the dark was I
Even if no one heeded my cries,
Still I was neutral to the darkness

Love came in once again
Like a butterfly caress
That feels of angelic skin
And whispers on darkened wind,
And I embraced the darkness

Love is such a powerful force which can either make us whole or shatter our being. Very good write!

quiet comfort comes in many forms...
offered from many places, including the darkness...
even butterflies and angels fly at night.

"Wrapped in the night it wore,"

very cool line of imagery PK
another poetically and emotionally soulful moment of inspire.

It's such a clever innocence with which you show myself to me
As if you know how it feels to never be who you wanted to be

The darkness seduces our senses. We all fall in its "trap", but who care it is worth it!
