Darkness

The sun is replaced with utter darkness,
The gentle sound of laughter that is gazed upon as happiness is replaced with complete silence and solitude
"Darkness" thee, complete me, with cold yet comforting hands, hands that point me to a pathway... a pathway to nothingness yet contentness
Content by being nothing
Nothing
Nonexistent
The pathway to darkness invokes thee evil in me
Evoking the familiar sting of the blade piercing my weak delicate skin viciously and repeatedly to feel what it is like to be alive again,
Alive I am, alive for pain
Evoking the old familiar taste of an apple, complete bitterns, red as blood
Blood that is drained from what traps my soul...
My prison in a human form
My prison…
In a human form
