Strength In The Darkness

Look in the distance,
Look deep in the dark,
Look in the shadows,
You'll see an old man.

They say those who see him,
Are ones chosen to experience,
The ecstasy of the darkness,
He is the embodiment of dark.

The darkness in his aura,
Emits an unusual calm,
I know as I have felt it,
Pure and simply ecstasy.

That old man is my friend,
Always there for my mind,
Easing the pain as I looked,
Into his two angry red eyes.

He is the one who can,
Teach all those suffering,
From a mutilated heart,
Peace in the darkness.

I know as I have been there,
The darkness enveloped me,
Took every bit of my being,
And removed all the pain.

As I comfortably lay,
In that which is dark,
I can feel pain no more,
Only this blissful glow.
