Darkness is the Man
Darkness is the man who doesn't know himself.

I.
Darkness is the man
who doesn’t know himself.
The one who think he stands in the light
with a foot planted on the edge
of the Hell's abyss.
II.
He will live a lie
without a thought
to his own demise.
III.
He will fail
but believe his self-induced
Victory.
He will fail
while treading in the deep end
though he can’t swim.
IV.
For him is darkness,
for he’ll never know
the greatest deception
Is the one he imposed
on himself.
He'll never know
triumph and failure,
for he'll never know
the difference.
