Sight is lost in the colorless black.
Whether your eyes are open or closed you do not know,
for there is no difference.
The dark caresses every inch of open skin:
smooth, soft and almost comforting like an old beloved blanket.
It gives a sense of protection,
but do not for a second let it fool you.
The dark is cold and cruel.
It cares not for the lives it holds.
Its only job is to fool you.
It will do anything to get you in its clutches,
so be careful,
when you fall in love with the dark.
