In darkness dwells a nameless dread,
A haunting fear, profound and spread,
Amidst the ancient, eerie gloom,
I tread the path to certain doom.
In shadowed depths where horrors hide,
I feel the presence, lurking beside,
A creature born of darkness deep,
Its eyes unblinking, secrets keep.
Its form unknown, a grotesque sight,
A terror born of darkest night,
In dampened caverns, it resides,
A monster with no known confines.
My trembling steps lead me astray,
In labyrinthine disarray,
For in this realm, all hope is lost,
A grim illusion tempts the most.
As dread and terror intertwine,
I know not if I'll e'er incline,
To leave this world of eerie fears,
Or be consumed by what appears.
The beast in darkness claims its prey,
In haunting whispers, seeks to sway,
But as I stare into its gaze,
I find my own dark soul ablaze.
For in the void, I see my core,
A truth I'd never known before,
The beast within, a part of me,
A mirror of my own decree.
In shadows deep, I am confined,
Bound to the beast within my mind,
And as I peer into the abyss,
I realize the beast is this.
