Darkness

In the darkness she lies
Heart pounding in her throat
Eyes open wide
 
Night time noises
Loud and clear
Keep her wide awake
 
Suspicious of the unseen
Holding myriad secrets
In darkness closed fist
 
Inside a black hole
A half moon crescent of shadows
 
Pondering the evil lurking
Beneath the blackened veil
Carpeting her in its filth
 
Obscurity so thick
She feels it through her breath
Inhaling it
Becoming it
 
The darkness exposing her demons
Hungry, desperate
To feed off her misery

(2012)
