Sometimes
darkness engulfs me and holds me tight,
Holding
me in its arms, be it day or night.
I
can't seem to release its firm grasp on me
I
am drowning in an ever-darkening sea......
I
gasp for a breath of life-giving air,
But
the murky depths of darkness holds me there.
I
search but for a small glimmer of light;
Not
a morning's dawn, but not the dead of night.
Not
even the stars shine on my lonely soul
And
I feel the weight of darkness take its toll.
I
find myself going deeper into the dark,
Where
there is no life, not even a spark.
Maybe
I should just give in to this feeling of pain.
There
is nothing more in this life to gain.
I
have lost it all, every hope, every dream;
And
in the darkness i sit; is that my scream.
The
sound of silence can be deafening loud
And
loneliness can find me in a crowd.
It
has become to be my only trusted friend
I
know that it will see me through the end.
I
know that there is a Holy light
And
it tempts me in the dead of night.
How
easy it would be to end this dark pain
To
never have to worry ever again.
Darkness
surrounds me and tempts me to its arm
With
promises of gladness and not any harm.
I
find within myself the will to resist.
I
order the darkness to cease and desist.
I
may never find love again in this life
I
may only find pain, suffering and strife
But
I am willing to go on and search for the light
Even
in this darkness, in the dead of night.
