Darkness

Darkness

Darkness is coming all around you.

You fall on your knees

asking for forgiveness.

The darkness is closer

as you scream out in pain.

It starts to surround you

and you can feel it inside too.

It takes over you slowly.

You become someone else

and the darkness is filling your heart.

Darkness is surrounding you

and it controls.

You try to reach out

but all you get is turn away.

The darkness is getting to be too much.

You try to yell

but you cannot speak.

The darkness has taken your voice.

The darkness within

is now all you have left.

You just let it take control

and now the darkness is there all the time.

Darkness has come for you

and you are part of the darkness.
