The Dark
Do you feel the darkness?
I don't mean dark thoughts or feelings.
The dark, the stillness, the quiet.
When you stand in the black of night, do you feel it?
It starts as a calm, peaceful silence.
You breathe in deep and exhale into nothing.
The anticipation grows inside you.
Is it something? Is it nothing? Is it emptiness?
Then you realize, it's the feeling of being alone...
In the dark.
