With You.
I am your be all and I am your end
Call me the Devil or call me your friend,
It makes little difference as I知 always right here
The Delicate Poison, The Dark Overseer.
Don稚 be afraid of your courage and might.
Hold onto your heart and fight the good fight.
I値l let you be who you just want to be
(I offer my hand and you値l take it, you値l see)
When you think I知 not there I shall be deep within
Impervious I am to your honour and sin
Whatever it is that hurts in the night
Whatever it is that aids guilt to your flight
You値l know it is me because ever I知 there
Your shaking persona, your thousand yard stare.

Quite like this tho mate - definitely one which I hope describes some else's state of mind and not your own, otherwise I'll not be giving you my new address!
Re: With You.
Oh yes - casting forth into possible mindsets - I find verse a good exercise, I'd like to right some prose, but as you've admitted yourself, the well is dry right now, though I do have a few incomplete works - you never know when a verse here or there may inspire a progressive leap within another project...
Re: With You.
Heh - I wrote one piece fairly recently that 'really' smacked of Tokien-speak - so much so that I had to radically alter the structure because it sounded like an Elvish air :
Funnily enough, this tendency of mine first cropped up in 'The Grey' - a poem you're familiar with and my first literary effort here in these dark corridors...
Re: With You.
I've always been somewhat obsessed with the idea of this two-ply existence, light and dark, day and night, and i'm aware that we all respond differently things, depending on what surrounds us.
I'm a very nocturnal person, probably becasue i'm too wary to lay in the dark for too long - things soon start to take over my psyche - beyond perhaps the worries and nightmares that close in around most of us, so I like to sit up and watch the embers of the fire fade...
Re: With You.
Equally interesting is the evil that hides in broad daylight, Hib. Sometimes the darkness can be a really good friend (that is the abstract noun, as opposed to the foppish hard-rockers )
Re: With You.
Perhaps - but personally I can always see past the evil that presents itself in daylight, although I agree - the darkness can be an ally at times.
Hello The Darkness my old friend
I've come to talk with you again...
