Darkness

Darkness fills my life.

It sometimes feels as penetrating as a knife.

Englufing me in no light,

Making me have no helpful sight.

Makes me feel lonely and depressed,

And makes me keep my feelings suppressed.

*

Demons so silently surround me.

I shake and shiver while they dance with glee.

Destroying my dreams and any hope I hold,

And turns my insides grim, and ice cold.

I cover my ears in desire for the dreadful sounds to finish,

But deep down I know they will never diminish.

My eyes remain blinded by my venomous fear,

While the evil spirits amusingly leer.

My grieving soul in their harmful seize,

Infecting my heart with a terminal disease.

*

Wishing for someone to hear my solemn cries,

And praying for them to know they're not lies.

To help me escape this horrendous site,

And help me find some kind of light.

I do hope for this iniquity to one day subside,

Because I know this is why some people have died.
