Darkness Embraced

I lay in darkness. I trade love for pain.
Release my grip on hope, and embrace agony.
Standing on the edge of darkness no more.
For I have entered into it.
I long for that poison, to taste it again.
It is not from temptation, but from choice.
Shed light from my soul, and let darkness in.
A feeling I've longed to know, now consumes me.
That familiar soul shall be my sanctuary.
Deep inside hides what I want so much to taste.
No more do I wonder what this would feel like.
Conceal your concerns, I long for the pain.
The shadows at my command, and the music plays..
..This is the end of all hope.
