Did you come from darkest night just to haunt my dreams? Or is it that you feed upon the memory of my screams/ Did you return to my dark hole, to fill me up with fear? Or is it that my darkness grows and serves to keep you near? In parasitic ambience, I feed you - you feed me And when the dark is gathering near, entwined is what we'll be In the dark you come and go, more often staying near And as the fear inside me grows, you feed upon my fear You increase as I repine and fade away to dust We have an interaction, which is never based on trust But mutual animosity is what we have to stay And when I grow in strength you hide - and quickly fade away Never leaving - all the time, is spent with you behind When you increase then my wit goes and I can lose my mind Giving in to darkness there, caught in this game we play Depression deep is what I seek, till all is stained with grey One day I'll find within my mind, I'll look to see you gone And on that day, be free I'll say, though the memory lingers on. Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown [This message has been edited by Kethry (12-13-2002 09:16 PM).] |
