I have touched the darkness

And I’ve found comfort in the silence of the night.

I have found joy in the shadows

When the sun, itself, has filled me with fright.

Dawn’s vibrant colors blister

And noon’s scorching rays burn my soul.

But dusk’s pale blues calm me

And midnight’s deep hues make me whole.

I have felt the emptiness of the stars

And been filled with sorrow from the moon beaming down.

But the darkest of nights somehow soothes me

When it’s me and myself, with only rays of darkness streaming down.
