Darkness Helps

To sit in the empty room, completely alone, helps. To let thoughts run free, merging with others, comforting. To deal with life’s emotional roller coaster, easier in both. Let the music erase the thoughts quickly, before they get too attached to everything floating. Let it all get lost from sight, swept into corners long forgotten.

Annoyance, hate, scars of death, and rejection, all live in those corners. Slowly they try to creep out, grasping at the hope of lights edge, dusk. Night returns slowly to keep them at bay, keep them from spreading further out. Embrace the dark for peaceful thoughts, hoping like hell that damn moon won’t rise.

Maybe this night will be of peace, and calmness, knowing that the darkness helps.
