Queen of Darkness

Queen of Darkness

5/8/2011

It is so hot,

I fear my sweet outer layer

Will melt away

To reveal the cold bitterness

That festers inside.

The bitter side

Of me is one that brings terror

For in its grasp

All will be consumed in darkness

And solitude.

Empty darkness

That will prevail and bring forth black

Nights of stark ruin

And all will flee to the abyss

That gives shelter.

An illusion

They run to, for I watch over

Everything here.

There is no corner that doesn’t

Harbor shadows.

The solitude

Closes in to leave them helpless

Praying for God.

But he isn’t there to shelter

Them from my spell.

The trees will die,

Withering in the cold winter

Frost I call forth.

Everything within sight shall wilt

And slowly, die.

I will become

The Queen of Darkness, who shatters

And scatters all

We know and cherish in this world.

All will perish.

Let us now hope

That this never occurs and I

Hold that layer

Of sweetness, that covers sorrow

That dwells within.
