Pitch Black
I lay awake in my bed alone
Rain pounds loudly on my window
Flashes of lightning fill my room
Thunder shakes the walls around me
I pull the covers close to my neck
This darkness makes my body tremble
This complete darkness keeps me up
As my imagination runs, I can't sleep
Wishing I had someone to hold me close
To listen to the rain hitting the roof
Rest my head on his chest for comfort
I imagine someone laying with me now
Holding me so close in this darkness
But there is no one, just this darkness
I can't see a single thing through it
Not even my own hand in front of me
This darkness reminds me that I am alone.
I love the darkness, and the chaos of the thunder and lightning. I like to stand in the storm untill I'm too numb to feel the cold and never tremble from the thunder. I dont understand what it's like to be an enemy with darkness. I'm too alone to shun the only thing that welcomes me.
