Tears are like stars (they arent rare)

Turn off the lights

So I can find some place

Safe to hide

Forever be me

Because I'm the only one to rely on

Lay here in the dark

My grief comes as no comfort

I'm out of reach

of anyone

and I know

it's just me

No armour shield

No Christmas star

I know it's not real

just me



So I'll just turn off the lights

Because I ran but found no help

To what do I owe these simple things?

Enjoying the light on my skin

But its much to bright

And all good things come to an end

I'm careful now as I turn off the light

As I die with the dark

The dark dies within me

Because I carried it long and fast

Through everything

and everyone

Hoping to extingiush what was kindled

in the blood of past generations.

But the problem never laid in me

Although I will let the dark kill me

just me
