Dancing In The Dark
I know of darkness
Its beauty
Its comforting surroundings
Its dangers
I know how misleading it can be
Deceiving
How one hides the scars
Yet I choose to dance in the dark
Darkness also tells a story of passion
A connection two can make
In a very special way
I'm sure you are aware
Or have experience in some way
A connection of this kind
Have you given into your darkest desires?
Or do they exist only in your mind
Waiting to be awakened
I choose to stay hidden in the shadows
Dancing wickedly with darkness
Perhaps one day
Another soul will join me
Wrapping his darkness around me
And our bodies will move
To the beat of our hearts
As we teach each other how to dance

Alone
by Edgar Allen Poe
From childhood's hour I have not been
As others were; I have not seen
As others saw; I could not bring
My passions from a common spring.
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow; I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone;
And all I loved, I loved alone.
Then- in my childhood, in the dawn
Of a most stormy life- was drawn
From every depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still:
From the torrent, or the fountain,
From the red cliff of the mountain,
From the sun that round me rolled
In its autumn tint of gold,
From the lightning in the sky
As it passed me flying by,
From the thunder and the storm,
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view.
