The Man of Darkness


He walks in a cape of darkness

Some say he is quite heartless.

But people don’t know the man I love

They think he’s a raven but to me a dove.

Eternally lost inside your reverie

My soul recants in blissful harmony

You have very powerful magic

Yet you can also be truly tragic

Finding some time with you can be hard

But I have to keep up my guard.

Being with you is what I desired

I really wish I could get admired

I know my time is almost up
I wonder what’s the holdup.

You hide in shadows out of sight

So you never give me a fright

This man is death.

And he is my breath
