A Walk Into The Black

I do not wish to dissipate the very breath I breathe
Whilst you live off dull pretensions I so quietly wait and seethe
Never was this a game, yet you think that you have won
With thoughts of mine unfinished by the time the day is done
The last word is essential to protect what you know best
And you know you'll surely have it far before I can attest
You'll argue that the darkness in a place we must keep from
But you misplace all your fear and in obscurity succumb
With a walk into the black, you'll find it level to the day
For the light shone matters not in the people's disarray
