Dark Seduction 2-29-92

Darkness Threatens
A shroud drops
     over my mind
Hiding light and
     happiness
Behind a black Veil

Light eclipsed by Dark
The world grows dim
     around me
And Night pours
     inky blackness
Over and through my soul

Imprisoned in my Mind
I strive to break
     the hold
The seductive power
     of Night

Seduced by blackness
     I hide
Try to escape
     to break free
But I am bound
     by chains
Fetters of the soul
     and Desire
