Darkness
Taunting me
Making me want to scream
Leaving me with nothing
But hollow dreams
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The tears brim
Around my eyes
And fall from my face
Like a leaking faucet
Leaving me cold
Going to have another episode
Im holding onto
The one thing
That brings me to know
That I'm here
A razor in my hand
And blood on my thigh
The stinging sensation
With every glide
A burn notice
With every cry
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Who
Who could be there
Who can understand
Everything your feeling
From within
The self hatred
The tears that you hide
All ties together
With a picture perfect smile
The scars you hide
All of the tears you cried
From your beautiful eyes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The depth
Of your heart
Burns for a way
To make all the pain
Simply just go away
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Holding a razor
What harm can be done
It's just one cut
But then you think just one more
So You keep
Adding more
You need the blood
To prove that your here
It's better when you feel
Than to be numb
From all the words
That burn
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The bridges have burned up
Your walls are built up
No one can tear them down
Now it's what you've all
Waited for
That one fateful night
The last day to survive
With hopes that someone saves you
When the darkness
Swallows you alive
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've created a wall
It's big and brick
If you break them down
I might let you in
But only if you promise
To save me
From the darkness
That has burrowed
It's self within
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The darkness
Eats me alive
Feeding me lies
Starves my body
Deprives my sleep
And Leaves scars
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have scars
They are on my body
They are the horrid memories
Of my battle
With the deep dark sky
If only you knew the pain
That the dark puts you through
You would surely run away if you knew
