darkness surrounds me with ebony and rage as I watch the sun end the day and the moon doesn't show as it bows to the darkness not to return to the sky tonight as it once did. as the darkness shuts everything out; the stars, the moon, and the sun are left out of the sky as the darkness wakes itself from a long year of endless slumber. I watch the colors from the sun faid into a deep dark black as it shut the would into a dark room, but the as the day end so must the night, but this time darkness makes the sun bow to its evils and its ways. as the devil grasps the earth with both hands and hides it within them. I turn to my father and say, why is the earth so angry, what did we do wrong. father shakes his head as if he doesn't know anything. so I whisper to the night as I would a friend, "why is it so dark? what happened to make you angry? why would anyone want nothing but darkness on the earth?" love was a way of getting through to the sky. but it didn't work as well as I would have hoped. someones eyes stood out in the dead of the street as the devil made its way towards the sleeping innocents of the dreams. he whispers something different to everyone but the only one he didn't come to was me. Its so dark I cant see him anymore, so I fade intoย ย deep sleep as he whispers into my ear, Its dark, you must sleep until it is gone, Its dark because I am alive and well, Its dark because I hate the light so sleep all day and night as I walk the earth. I whisper back to him something that seemed to make the earths darkness shake as the words exit my lips, "It is only dark because you are not loved and you are one person that thinks no one wants to be loved but HE is the power and HE is the light that scares you into hiding so why don't you let the darkness turn to light so you can fade into the darkness of the Underworld as we continue our life, and you may meet us again if your dreams turn into nightmares as the darkness fades with you. Its dark because your heart knows nothing else but the color of its owner and no one will love you unless you begin again In a new light. Its dark, but light will be given to those who enjoy it and can continue on withoutย ย the sun beating against the sinners backs, they will join you in the depths of your heartache but the truth is the only time you were truly happy was when you were in heaven with the other angels with the wings of the snow that falls to the earth with grace but nothing more to you it will always be dark, and to you its dark
