The Darkness


Beneath the moonlight I make my way, Clearing out the fog From the glare of day. The darkness tempts But does not take. She dances to me, But does not seduce. I do not deny her, With the glimmering stars That fall in her eyes. She is with me always; Sometimes fighting the demons When they do not play, And sometimes she walks with me, When I escape the light of day.
