Everlasting Darkness

There's no escape.

"I'm not afraid of the darkness. What I'm afraid of is being what's behind it.”-E.A. Cabaltica (2014)

A shadow.

Nothing more.

Nothing less.

A shade.

Nothing more.

Nothing less.

A darkness so raw,

it burns your soul.

You feel lost, and empty.

You feel nothing.

Everlasting darkness.

You thought it couldn’t possibly be real.

But it is. It found you.

You try to escape it, but it’s too late.

You gave up too late. It found you.

There’s no escape now.

Deny. Deny its existence.

That’s all one can think of.

You can’t deny that everything changed.

Even though you’ve changed.

You’ve changed. But you definitely won’t admit it.

To admit you’ve changed is to admit defeat.

To admit defeat is to surrender.

To surrender to the darkness.

Surrender to the darkness.

The everlasting darkness.

A darkness so raw,

you can’t breathe.

You feel poison running through your veins.

It’s the darkness seeping through. It has come to you.

Are you ready to surrender yourself?

Are you ready to become nothing more? Nothing less?

Are you ready to become part of the everlasting darkness?

Are you?

Welcome.

To the Everlasting Darkness.
