Living In The Dark



I wonder what it would be like

To let my guard down

To let walls crumble,

Could I survive all the turmoil

Would my heart still beat without sound?



Sometimes you wander in the dark

Questioning if you will ever see the light

You still feel those feelings of the past

Haunting images so vivid,

So stark.



Can the joy of love

Overcome the pain of hurt?

You need to believe

But memories of tears cloud any happiness,

And darkness surrounds

Before you can start.



Maybe time has passed me by

My chances for real love gone?

I hope deep in my heart that it hasn't

But one thing I know for sure,

Its so much easier living in the dark.
