Don't be afraid

When the darkness creeps upon you,
ceasing the beating drum in your chest
and the howl of victory screams in your ear

Don't be afraid.

When it tortures you into submission,
slaying your will to resist; devouring
your devotion like a vicious vampire

Don't be afraid.

When I behave as if I want more
and leave signs of something
peculiar in my footsteps

Don't be afraid.
It's only love.
