Darkness slowly invades my body,
Ridding me of all emotion;
Blinding and deafening me,
It’s being as vast as an ocean.
Screaming for mercy,
But my pleas suffocated;
The darkness becomes a part of me,
Its power I overestimated.
Panic finally sets in,
With nothing visible in sight;
All I pray for is redemption,
From darkness’ unending might.
I float away gracefully,
Dark waters welcoming my soul;
The flame within now purged,
In a darkness as black as kohl.

Darkness slowly invades my body,
Ridding me of all emotion;
Blinding and deafening me,
It’s being as vast as an ocean.
Screaming for mercy,
But my pleas suffocated;
The darkness becomes a part of me,
Its power I overestimated.
Panic finally sets in,
With nothing visible in sight;
All I pray for is redemption,
From darkness’ unending might.
I float away gracefully,
Dark waters welcoming my soul;
The flame within now purged,
In a darkness as black as kohl.
