If the darkness has found you, fear not.
If it caresses your ears with cold, velvet words,
you may listen without tremor.
If it clasps and twists your body,
you can move with it unbound.
If it blackens your vision,
close your eyes and
make it blacker still.
The darkness knows one path,
so pull it close
and it will shrink,
and fade.
Own your dark,
not for power,
but for freedom.
Cast it out
and you will cleave yourself.
Own your dark, child
and it will not own
you.
