Write a Somonka from the perspectives of two lovers. A Somonka is made of two Tankas, with the second responding to the first.

One With It
Can’t hear what you say!
Your voice is low and darkened.
My love, come today!
In my dreams, I feel frightened,
Surrounded by ghouls, I pray…
My sweet, I am here!
Desperate to hold you again,
Come to me, don’t fear!
Darkness won’t let you feel pain.
I’m one with it now, my dear…
