Fear the Dark

Whom ever claims they don't fear the dark is fooling themselves. In the dark is all that we should ever fear.

Demons dwell there, living shadows that mock our very existence.

Beasts of sins and crimes devoid of humanity hunt and pray on the virtues of our soul.

Whispers of the world, whispers not meant for a sane ear, they echo off the dark and down the corridors of the mind.

Then there's the maddening silence, the reflecting nothing that deafens every fiber of our wills.

You sit alone long  enough in the dark, the worst will come.

For in the dark, we face ourselves. An in the end, even the most vitreous of us has their demons they don't wish to face.
