Your hold is tight, and I have fought your darkness throughout my life.
How do I befriend you, the very thing that threatens to extinguish my flame?
What lessons do you want me to learn so that you will loosen your grip?
Is it about loss and fear, about being abandoned?
I chose this life, so I must have wanted you to accompany me.
Perhaps your grip is meant to protect me from the depths.
When I die, will you journey through time alongside me, back to the stars?
Will you transform into a black hole, a cosmic presence that stays with me?
Are you my forever companion in the infinite universe?
As my soul contemplated these questions, a profound realization washed over it like a gentle breeze. The Grip of Darkness was not an adversary to be vanquished but a mentor, a guide through the intricate corridors of life. In its grip, my soul learned the art of tenacity, the beauty of courage, and the power of perseverance.

In choosing this life, I invited the Grip of Darkness to accompany me, understanding on a profound level that its presence is not a burden but a blessing. It becomes my shield in moments of despair, reminding me of the inherent strength and resilience that resides within my very core. I’ve learned to face my fears and insecurities, finding solace in the knowledge that even in the darkest moments, my inner light will prevail.
“Yes," my soul whispered "You embrace darkness not in an evil way, but as a guardian, a silent witness to your journey. Together you share your light, not to extinguish it, but to understand it, to illuminate the very essence of your being."
With a sigh as ancient as time itself, the Grip of Darkness responded, its voice echoing through the cosmos. "When you depart from this earthly realm, I will journey with you, back to the stars from whence you came. I shall become a black hole, a silent sentinel standing guard beside you, a companion in the infinite expanse of the universe."
The Grip of Darkness, often misunderstood, revealed itself as a teacher, a companion, and a friend. Its lessons, veiled in shadows, helped unravel the mysteries of my existence, guiding me in this final chapter of my life towards self-discovery and acceptance.
The answer lies in the eternal connection we share with the universe. The darkness becomes a part of the cosmic dance, guiding us back to the celestial realms from whence we came.
In the tapestry of life, it has become a thread, weaving through my experiences and reminding me that in the depths of darkness, my light shines the brightest.
