Analysis of The dark
It touches me and soon consumes me
I cry at first, then start to realize that
It's not as bad as a thought, my fright was
Unjustified, it was peace and calm
The lack of distractions and surprises
Was calming. I surrendered to it,
Losing myself and becoming a part
Of everything, the entire universe is one
And it is me and I am it, there are no boundaries
No separation, everything is the same
And I am at last in peace
