darkness 9 July 2005

[azdesertrose]

the darkness is still around me
the air heavy with humidity
and with despair
the darkness surrounds me
beckoning to me

the fear is still around me
a leftover from years ago
covered in green and fuzz
and disgust
at myself and at him

the terror is still around me
waiting for the moments when my guard is down
and when it can
it leaps on me
attacking me

the darkness is still around me
the air heavy with terror
with fate
the darkness surrounds me
beckoning to me
