In this moonless and starless night
Only illuminated by candlelight
The darkness swallows everything
My sight is limited this evening.
But this darkness is comforting,
This triggers nothing
It's a place so familiar
Inside my head is similar.
This darkness is not a stranger;
I've been living in it forever
The darkness I once feared
Is now the world I live in.
In this darkness
I don't fear it
It's so familiar
It feels like home.
