It can be silent
Then suddenly break free
with the intensity of fireworks flooding a dark, thick sky.

It slinks in the dark
Terrifying you to your core
Making you vulnerable to the only truth amongst lies.

We will **** for it
Consume it's flesh and moan with it's blood trickling down our throats
But it does the same to us
It devours all but leaves only a few sane enough to see its destruction
It laughs at the damaged and wrecked while humbling us in our sleep.

It kills you
Gently
Quietly
While caressing your eyes with tears
It knows nothing of mercy
Yet makes us cry with pleasure
Because though we are scared of it
God, how we crave it.
