For thousands of years, the darkness has been a sign of insanity; a sign of fear. The darkness causes the mind to wander, and it is quick to create horrors. In contrast to this, it is in the darkness that many find safety; it is the one place in which they can hide.

Consider to yourself, which of these are you? You may believe you fit one description without even the slightest thought. Chances are, you found yourself in one while I spoke them; before I asked the question. But let me tell you this... even those who believe they have their mind set may find it changed in an instant.

The darkness may hide you now, but it won't keep you safe forever. The darkness may be what you fear most, but in time you just might find that it is in there that you are hidden from even the darkest of horrors.

There may be terrors in this dark world, but it is also the darkness that gives you protection from that in its depths. And it is now, in these hours of trepidity, you will find that you may come to appreciate the darkest of forests, graveyards, houses, or anywhere else you may be.

All you have to do is let the light in the darkness in. Let it envelope you in its depths. Become one with it and let it swallow you up. Hide in it, trust in it, give in to it. For it is only then that you can survive.

So. That's how I overthink darkness. What do you think? Does it sound okay? Talk to me, people! I have 19 views rn and only one person is commenting at all. {Thanks ManalMRSMalik :) }

Anyway, that's darkness for you :)

Or at least darkness for me...

Anyways, please comment and tell me what you want me to overthink or write a speech about.

Thanks!
