Friend and Foe

The Dark is my friend,
But He is also my foe.

He lures me in with his warm embrace
And promises of sleep and tranquility.

Once I'm there,
It turns icy cold and paralyzes me
With certainty of the
Panic and Silence
That will soon flow through me.

And I'm trapped.

Trapped in the Great Abyss of Darkness.

Every time I feel like I'm almost in the light,
He sucks Silence and Panic on me to yank me back in.

He thinks I'll give in,
But I won't.

I'll keep fighting

My friend and my foe.
