A darkness resides somewhere within
That draws me towards the darkest of sin
It conflicts with my dedication to the light
And seems to be a subtle but never ending fight
I have a love and desire for the dark
And always wonder if the bite really is as bad as the bark
But the light doesn’t seem to approve
And potential consequences help to determine my next move
So I smile and comply
But occasionally I find my mind wandering towards darker stimuli
Because I wander, but I don’t feel lost
I am comfortable, but just worry about the cost
The deeper I walk into the dark forest of my mind
The more depth I seem to find
And as I walk, i feel no fear
Because I know without a doubt that I am the darkest thing in here.
So although there may be darkness all around,
This is where I feel safe and sound.
