I have experienced a lot of late
From Broken hearts to broken bonds
To shadows in the outer realms
And experiences within the depths of Hell!

True Lessons - to respect always
Dark Lessons - to cherish eternally
But with these Lessons learned
Comes yet another such gift...

The gift of Darkness
Shared by others with me.
And it is with this gift
That I now return to you in kind

So that you too, can truly see
What lies Beyond Hidden Realms
That have assisted me throughout my past
That I have embraced -my act of empowerment.

This gift of Darkness
Is more than ancient in its past
Endured through time by many
Just as other shadowspawn do.

It is said to be a fossiled realm
A realm beyond all comprehension
It is said to have the ability
To live beyond a thousand years.

Darkness is the sign of long life lasting!
The realms beyond contains knowledge
And has energies abound
Yet a gift within a gift!

For this is the gift that I now return to you
That, which will be a symbolic gift
One for you to experience
One to learn from, just as I had!

What you will experience will be un-new to you
For it is the same that you called upon yourself
Not all that long ago
But it will bring about, that you will not desire...

To return in kind a gift as this
That I now call upon intent to do
It has been invoked by you, yourself
Warranted by the actions and thoughts

Some would call it Karma..
Karma is what its not!
For these lessons that I return in kind
Are only mirrors of your demons

Darkness has yet another gift
The gift of giving memories
Memories that will be hard to forget
And hoping that it will you bring many.

For sharing these gifts with me
And these gifts that I now share with you
And for knowing these returned
These gifts within a gift.
I give to you.
