The Dark

The Dark is my comfort;
My velvet,
My lace.
It knows not of shame, not of guilt nor of grace.
The dark is my virtue;
No judgement,
No sin,
It whispers the secrets I keep deep within.
It sees hidden meanings,
It speaks foreign tongues,
To most, it’s unknown,
And yet, I belong.
Its depths are my solace, 
From light, I refrain,
For the Dark is my comfort;
And The Dark knows my pain.

There's a lovely, lyrical flow to this piece which cleverly belies the 'darker' aspects of the subject.

Excellent!
