Shadows Embrace

by Jack Nightengale   Dec 10, 2012


Trapped in a silent darkness without fear,
Still winds steadily blow quiet whispers in my ear.
Slowly fading from a light that gave me such pain,
This feeling of comfort sheltering me from this horrid white rain.

Fingers of the night gently touching my skin,
No regrets left, I've been forgiven of all sin.
The hands of shadows steadily roaming,
A sensual feel of something that I've been longing.

From the light I have turned away,
In this darkness I want to forever stay,
From pain and torture, safe from all harm,
Wrapped around me the shadows arm.

It keeps me safe and leaves no marks,
Only a promise of protection, fires and sparks.
I do not fear it for it has no face,
Forever shall I stay in the loving shadows embrace.
