My Friend Darkness

They can have my darkness if they want it.
If that's what they need. 
It can be theirs.

What they think 
is I am holding her hand
following
blind into the darkness.
See, She is me and I am her and We are Three. 
Nothing can come between this Trinity. 

Thinking they want her so bad. 
Tempting me.
Provoking me.
I can set her free. 

But please remember darkness envelops all she sees. 
So though she resides with me as we are Three.
She will be one with you. Enshrouding your hue. 
Distorting your view. 
Darkness throughout all you knew. 
And her release is yours to keep
as it is forever 
waking life and sleep.

You see we are friends now. 
We understand each other deep. 
She is the one that showed me where to seek light
when she came for me. 
A Love like this did not come cheap. 

She has walked with me for as long as I can remember. 
Reminding me as a small child
she would be with me forever. 

So when she comes your way
know she will be a part of you, not me. 
Your request was simply 'set her free'.

When she comes knocking at your door
know I am sending only Love. 
For she will be your cool breeze
when you need to see the forest through the trees. 
When your life choices bring you to your knees.
She will be there. 
My friend, Darkness.
