Into the Blue (Part VI) – The Dark

 

For our next journey in the Blue

I ask you to remove your shoes

And let me give the Wolf your sight

You must now walk alone, and go beyond the light

 

Feel the stagnant sludge ooze between your toes

Sending waves of foulest thoughts straight up to your mind

Feel the hairs stand upon your neck

In the terror of what is behind

 

Feel the claws of aged crones

Running through your hair

And listen to their piercing cackle

As they tear flesh to leave bones bare

 

Feel the desolation as your screams evaporate unheard

Compounded by insane laughter dragging tears from blinded eyes

Feel evil spirits punch their way through heaving chest

And taking out your soul, licking with barbed tongues, their ill-begotten prize

 

Feel the blades of Darkness slicing through your brain

Taking only thoughts of good, and leaving you the pain

Hear the howls of famished hounds now baying for your blood

And feel the hand of Satan hold your face down in the mud

 

Feel the powerlessness given by the Darkness

Plead mercy for release from fear

Pray to all that's Holy

You don't have to live your life in here

 

Apologies my Angel, this is the other side of Love

Where you befriend the vultures and feast upon the Dove

Where shadows are embodied

And block passage to light above

 

I have spent so long in this fetid hell

Since reading the letter saying I was not the one

And for release from it's enslavement

I had to show you what your words had done

 

I know this may surprise you

But I would stay here time eternal

And lie down in it's stench

In payment for just one more moment, with you upon our bench

 

Of course, this will not happen

The Wolf has made me see

That the need for your love is my prison

And to let it go will set me free

 

I do not wish to leave you

In this place and with these thoughts upon your mind

Let us take one more journey

And perhaps more pleasures the Blue will let us find...
