Prompt- 58. Darkness: Write a poem or journal entry inspired by what you can’t see.

Like a black velvet cloak it enveloped the world

Encasing life within its dusky confines

Shadows obscured my once clear vision

Weakening my senses with their dark magic

Nothing was definite within this darkness

Shapes biurred and boundaries distorted

It concealed within its black heart,

Everything good, bad and grey, alike.

This darkness possessed a spirit of its own.

One that was  full of mystery and vagueness.

It offered a welcoming comfort and protection

From the stark brightness of light.

Finally!
