I go to dark  (inspired by krawdad)

as a child of the light
light surrounds me
I walk in it
then suddenly, without provoke
I go to the dark
whisk away on the wings of hell
to the gloomy shadows
the secret palace of grim
slave to the sinister master
lurking------------licking
making love to my will
devouring my flesh
between his bloody teeth
bequeathing numbness
chilling my labored breath
consuming places not intended for his touch
determined I am not his gift
He
spits me back to earth

This just "fell" into dark emotion...I loved the metaphors, and the structure--You stride beautifully into dark, helen. Great writing.

enjoyed the darkness it brings with it, I was quite at home in the gloom

lost in thought, found in words.
