darkness

darkness creeps onto the light
like a very careful thief,
waiting for the right time
to rob us of our sight.

it lingers on and on
like a very heavy fog,
giving the uneasy feeling
as if someones following us.

darkness is a cloud of mystery
that's everywhere we go,
its also a symbol for rest
as we lay or heads down.

yes it is strange this fear of the dark, the same scene in the light could be beautiful. Must be the mind.
