Igniting The Black Flame

There was the time when I wanted the blackness to be my breath For it to be my very being and blood Black, where should me luminous red Soon a light I had seen in the darkness so many times before The light did not find me like that constructed icon of slaves No, I found it A black flame of knowledge I take that sigil to my breast Knowing the true master was all it took Clarify my path in the convoluted existence Answers were always there I just never knew the questions to ask They are my brothers in the great Darkness Stoned as one legion in rule What they ask for, I have to offer What they give in return, unmatched by any mortal force
