“The reigning darkness”

I have been waiting patiently
with my eyes closed.
I have been waiting and counting,
Was there even a countdown set in place?

I see black skies,
Darkness encapsulating and
Shading the light of the moon,
Why have been I sitting in the shadows
Where everything felt safe?

Could I just be in a place and time,
that I envisioned and created myself,
a place where darkness reigns?

I have been waiting patiently,
The countdown has never been set,
It is just me and the encapsulating darkness
It is just me and the wandering mind.
