The Black Quiet

The twilight escapes me...i am vexed forever more...dying in silence...staring at the door....if you knew what i knew...you wouldn't love me anymore...so my secret will die with me...for the sake of keeping you innocent...to God only...shall i repent...clinging to my rosary...i ly awake as the darkness covers me
 
Paralyzed when i fall asleep...only to wake and can' t scream...even in my dream...i'm losing you...surrounded by shadow people...they glare with red eyes...for once in my life...i am stricken with fear...Oh God..I really need you here..I need you now..I need you now
 
I shutter as a creature opens the door...i see the black quiet crawling on the floor...my lover sleeps so peacefully...but i can't move...at least my tears are creeping...this is it..i kept thinking...and then the quiet spoke and i began to choke..and i never saw the light again.
