Darkness Is My Closest Friend Poem by ihope youneverknow

Empty space and empty air
Calm and chaos, both so rare
Standing in this lack of light
Darkness is the sky at night

Still and quiet, left to wait
Filled with peace or love or hate, l
Above, under, in the sky
Darkness is where shadows lie

In the dark depths of the sea
Refuge to which many flee
Where nothing is ever found
Darkness is blood on the ground

Where the wild wolves all pace
Where each beating heart does race
To whom every soul belongs
Darkness is the moonlight's songs

Behind every sun and star
Stretching over, near to far
Behind every lock and door
Darkness is the ocean's floor

Chilling fear and endless sleep
Every promise left to keep
Every beings' final breath
Darkness is the face of Death

Fear and pain concealed within
Every place I've ever been
Every unheard cry and plea
Darkness is the soul in me

Both my comfort and my bane
Taking both my joy and pain
From beginning to the end
Darkness is my closest friend
