Does this darkness have a name?

Does this darkness have a name? This cruelty, this hatred. How did it find us? Did it steal into our lives or did we seek it out and embrace it? What happened to us that we send children into the world like we send men to a war? Hoping for their safe return but knowing some will be lost along the way. When did we lose our way consumed by the shadow and swallowed whole by the darkness? Does this darkness have a name? Is it your name?
