sometimes its comforting, the dark its like a veil its like a fog it surrounds you, and although its cold in a weird way its, familiar like its always there, but sometimes you get too comfortable fall in too deep and feel safe where you shouldn't its hard to get out when it feels right like its where you belong where you deserve to be, in the dark in the fog in the cold and after the light is always too bright, the air too warm its too perfect, and you were right because you know what comes next it always comes next, the darkness so why not accept it? why not stay? since it always comes back, the light always dims the warmth always leaves, it gets smothered by the wind and the rain and now the matches are wet so you cannot relight it, when all you need is a spark but you cant get one, but why not wait for them to dry because the rain never seems to stop it just keeping going washing away everything making you blank, making you empty, it blends the days together when there is no light, no way to tell how long its been or how much longer and then one day it stops and the light is back, the warmth fills you up until you overflow, but your so scared to lose it again you don't even care, it's almost scary how much you missed it, but even in the most perfect moments its always there making you wonder how long will it last and its hard to enjoy it when you know one day the darkness always comes back so the rain starts, the cold comes and what's the point of putting in the energy when it will always fade, will always dim because the cold days get more and more and more frequent, until you cant remember the warmth until you don't even want it because, the cold becomes comfortable and that's all we want, right? to be comfortable to feel safe to feel something to feel the cold is better than to feel nothing, right? at least the cold reminds you you're alive, that you still are here until one day you aren't because the darkness gets us all and in a weird way its almost nice, to know one day we will all have the same fate, no matter how hard we try no matter what the darkness always wins so, why not find comfort in it? the darkness.

darkness
sometimes its comforting, the dark its like a veil its like a fog it surrounds you, and although its cold in a weird way its, familiar like its always there, but sometimes you get too comfortable fall in too deep and feel safe where you shouldn't its hard to get out when it feels right like its where you belong where you deserve to be, in the dark in the fog in the cold and after the light is always too bright, the air too warm its too perfect, and you were right because you know what comes next it always comes next, the darkness so why not accept it? why not stay? since it always comes back, the light always dims the warmth always leaves, it gets smothered by the wind and the rain and now the matches are wet so you cannot relight it, when all you need is a spark but you cant get one, but why not wait for them to dry because the rain never seems to stop it just keeping going washing away everything making you blank, making you empty, it blends the days together when there is no light, no way to tell how long its been or how much longer and then one day it stops and the light is back, the warmth fills you up until you overflow, but your so scared to lose it again you don't even care, it's almost scary how much you missed it, but even in the most perfect moments its always there making you wonder how long will it last and its hard to enjoy it when you know one day the darkness always comes back so the rain starts, the cold comes and what's the point of putting in the energy when it will always fade, will always dim because the cold days get more and more and more frequent, until you cant remember the warmth until you don't even want it because, the cold becomes comfortable and that's all we want, right? to be comfortable to feel safe to feel something to feel the cold is better than to feel nothing, right? at least the cold reminds you you're alive, that you still are here until one day you aren't because the darkness gets us all and in a weird way its almost nice, to know one day we will all have the same fate, no matter how hard we try no matter what the darkness always wins so, why not find comfort in it? the darkness.
sometimes its hard for me to express how i feel and i think this portrays it pretty well and i hope someone else understands what im saying.
