The rules of darkness are thus, No hint or flicker of light you trust, But stay to the shadowed way, Letting the night become your day. You most move with the shadow For it alone can hide your sorrow, Cool emotion and drown your lust. The steaming water won’t warm the soul Close your eye in tears to hide Keeping all locked deep inside. No flames of passion will light the way You must long for the darkness to stay Adjusting to the endless numbing cold. Gloom thanks to WhiteRose for the inspiration [This message has been edited by Professor Gloom (01-06-2003 09:53 AM).] |

For some of us at all times and all of us sometimes there is comfort in the cloak of darkness. |
