Poem number two that I just randomly texted to myself lol The Darkness The darkness scares me. Not because of what I fear lurks, With spindly limbs and glowing eyes, But because of what the darkness holds, And what, within, resides. When we die, we see the dark. We see those flashing colored stars, We see them fade to black. When I find myself in that void, I fear I won’t come back. I fear what comes when we must die, I fear what lies beyond. Not because of what I fear lurks, But because I fear I’m wrong.
