Alone in darkness



the night falls without a sound, cold and alone are we.
the emotion for which you lust
flares once, then dies,
taken by a velvet ebon nothingness.
all hope must not endure.

your heart desires no more.
how could you fail to believe?
our dark emotions surround us, crying,
we are fallen
