Darkness To Love

Darkness always holds the best secrets. Your all alone in a place so vibrant and alive when the sun is up, but when its down, a whole new type of magic begins to flourish. My mind in the dark it shares only the secrets which are sacred to me. Noone will every know them. The darkness will never share.
I have always felt as though my streets were safe in the darkness, but I didn't realize there was another who also shared his secrets with the darkness many, many miles away. His secrets were not unfamiliar to me. Those secrets were similar to mine. How could this be? How could another never seen nor heard, have the secrets like mine? Struck with curiosity, I sent a message into the darkness hoping to get a response back. Something simple. After I was finished and laid down to rest for the night.
In the middle of my sleep I wake suddenly, as if someone had touched my face. I wake to find nothing in the darkness that surrounds me. I continue to look around shifting my eyes from left to right and all over. Still nothing. I stettle my pounding heart and start to dift off again.
I feel a warm breath upon my ear and the words that would ring out in my soul for eternity. I love you, I always have. I wake up excited but scared at the same time. I open my eyes and see nothing. I feel something different. I feel a warmth inside I have never felt before. A warmth that maybe me feel sick almost and also like I was floating on cloud 9. I hear a whisper, a familiar word travels through the dark vail, my name. Now I was getting nervous, who was in my room? Who was stealing my secrets?
I have been burned so many times before that I was afraid to love or allow myself to commit. I have stayed true to my nature, keeping everyone out. My fear has contributed to my shutting people out and loneliness. The reason I have turned to the darkness is nothing, no judgements, no fights, & no hurt. The darkness my only comfort. Something was truly missing. I didn't know what or I refused to want to know.
Again, I hear a faint whisper, 'come to me', I check my ears and my eyes, maybe I'm still sleeping. No, I'm wide awake. Damn, what is going on? I pull up my big girl panties and respond, "who are you & what do you want?" I reach for the lamp on the beside table, fingers ready to turn the know on the lamp, when I hear " no, wait!" I retract my fingers slowly. With curiosity in my voice I question, "why should I listen to you?" The voice in the darkness softly spoke, "if you allow the light to penetrate this vail, I will disappear." I remove my hand completely from the lamp. I sit up slightly in my bed, trying to concentrate on the darkness and the sounds around me. I hear a slight shuffle of bare feet on the wood floor. The voice in shadows begins to speak, "may I sit near you and explain somethings? ", I have into to my curiosity and replied, "yes." I felt a slight weight shift on the opposite side of the bed. It was him. I could smell an oh so familiar smell, like exotic island and a strong man. Snap out it, back to the matter at hand, this person is in my room on my bed at night. He speaks again, "are you ready to know the truth? " I nodded, dummy is dark,I replied, "yes", as I giggled slightly. He began explaining how this entire thing can about. He said, " I heard your secrets, I was struck by how similar they were to mine. I sent mine back to you, just to see what would happen." I interupted to ask an important question, "what's your name? " what he said took my breath away. How could he have known that name? Have I said before? My head going dizzy. I give a short sucked sigh and the voice responses, "are you ok?" Before I could properly response, warm hand grazed my cheek, my heart stopped. I could feel this electricity surge through me from my head to deep inside my core. How did I allow this to happen? I don'tdon't know this man from Adam's house cat. He knows something about me. Concentrate on the issue here, get your head in the game not in the clouds. I sigh as I compose myself and prepare for what kind of storey I wad about to be told. I acknowledged that I was ready. He continued to explain that our paths have be crossed only by this vail of darkness. He said or hearts arts destined to be united and souls become one. That's the reason I could hear his secrets and he could hear mine
