Nyx


I am Night.

For I look down upon you with the shine of a million stars,

I cover you with a blanket of moonlight. 

I am Night. 

For my husband descends upon you in darkness,

Under the veil of never-ending shadows of the unknown.

I am Night. 

Through Darkness, I birth Light and Day, 

Through only myself, I give Death life. 

I am Night. 

Born from Choas at the dawn of creation,

Spending eternity within a deep abyss.

I am night. 

I am not evil, 

 For I breed Dreams as I breed Torment. 

I am Nyx.
