My darkness rises
Slowly and seductively
From a pool of despair
She reaches out a clawed and oozing hand
And her eyes are black as midnight
I turn and hide in you, my love
I hold you as tight as I can
I whisper to you, my love
“Hold me while you can”
You wrap your arms around me
Closer until we are one
All I can see is you
All I smell is you
All I touch is you
All I can hear is your heartbeat
Slow and steady
Not her whispers
I’m scared to let you go
I don’t want to face her again
Because, my love, I know
I might not see you again
Her eyes will pull me closer
Close enough for her hands to drag me down
I will choke and drown on darkness
So don’t let me go
I won’t let you go!
Hold me until I forget why I’m hiding
Tell me when she’s gone
