Days of Darkness

Days of darkness, feeling like the dead eating on my carcass.
I stay inside, trying to hide away from all of the tears that I cried.
Still to be not known, feeling like I'm in this world all alone.
Trapped in the days of no light, wondering how do I win this fight.
Doing everything I can with all of my might.
I still try to win the fight, the fight of my own darkness.
My flow is yet still monstrous, trying to fulfill my only promise.
I write these words to show the power that I harness.
Days of darkness without seeing light, I'm stuck in my shell while all of these bugs bite.
I scream out loud as my body disappears, all of these insects gnawing at my ears.
Yet I fail to hear what my father told me, tried to send me out to what I was suppose to be.
Always inside I try to flee to protect myself from the death of me.
Yet I'm still here from the power I harness, best believe these are my days of darkness.
