You know the bed feels warmer
Sleeping here alone
You know I dream in colour
And do the things I want
Darkness swallows me up, hiding me from the world around me. I loved darkness. It was mysterious. Dangerous. Me. Everything darkness stood for, I did too. Darkness was not people’s friend, in fact, darkness is feared among people. As children we fear darkness, scared about what lurks around. When it is dark our senses are dampened. This creates a fear. People do not like it when they are not at the best of their abilities. But for me? I have adapted to darkness, and the way it works, and now, instead of fearing it, I accept in with open arms, I welcome it. Darkness is my escape. It is how I have learnt to deal with issues that rip my heart in two.
My feet scrape the sandy path as I make my way down the deserted street, my footsteps echoing around me. There was something comforting about the sound of your own footsteps. They reminded me that I was alone. That I this was where I belong, roaming the dark streets. The soft crash of waves could be heard in the distance, the constant hum of the ocean. My eyes gazed over the midnight blue ocean. Mysterious, secretive. The waves crashed to the shore creeping further and further to where I wall. I watched as the water lapped at the edge of the path, but no matter how hard it seemed to push its self, t never made it to his feet.
Smiling I turned my dark gaze over to the town that slept, unaware of people, people like me, roaming the streets. People who wanted to have some fun. Mysterious, dangerous people. I was someone who wasn’t nice or friendly. I wasn’t someone who would make, or even helpoh you dreams to come a reality. In fact I was the opposite. I destroyed dreams, dreams and lives. I clasp them between my fingers, and crush them like a paper cup.
Soon the harsh sound of my steps turned into muffled ones. Sand crept into my shoes as I padded down the sandy dunes, my feet leading me a jetty further in the distance. The jetty looked like an abandoned wreck. The wooded planks were rotting letting of a foul smell. Water lapped around the stumps which lead into the surging blue mass of liquid. From the distance a small flickering light was visible, flickering in and out of my vision. My smile widened as I neared the flickering light. I let my body relax as I drew closer, letting the familiarity of the place surge into my vision, making me feel at home. Memories swam in and out of my mind. A place where I could be myself…
Finally me feet come to a halt. I let my gaze sweep over the area. I was under the jetty, small flakes of rotting wood scatter all over the damp sand. Seaweed lay in clumps scattered all over the shore, little creatures tucked away in there depths. The light came from a small fire, in and old rusty barrel, place near one of the pillars which seem to reach out of the sand, and connect to the rotting wood above, a figure stood next to the fire. Their hands pressed close to the orange red flames. The words escape my mouth before I could stop them: “Simon! Who you doing mate?!”
As soon as the words were out, I realised that the figure wasn’t Simon. But a stranger, someone who I hadn’t meet before. My eyes narrow ever so slightly as I take in the masculine figure, which was now turning to face me.You didn't think that I'd come back
I'd come back swinging
You try to break me, but you see
