Hello Darkness My Old Friend

Hello darkness my old friend

Nice to meet you once again

I didn’t mean you any harm

Why the cause for this alarm

Darkness led me to a place

I couldn’t even see her face

It was cold and empty space

Filled with torment and disgrace

She led me down some corridors

And I found myself on the moors

She whispered silently in my ear

Suddenly I was gripped with fear

I began to choke and revoke

My eyes were streaming from the smoke

I began to slumber and felt quite frail

Then I realised, this must be hell!

I felt a jolt and like a bolt

Thrust in time for my revolt

Suddenly from in my bed

Was I dreaming, was I dead?

The darkness fell once more

Engulfing me that’s for sure

I felt a cloak of tightness fall

Trying to grab, I felt so small

This time travelling really fast

I saw the echoes of my past

We flew by, some obscure things

Is this what my darkness brings?

With a flash of dazzling light

The darkness blew out of site

A glimmer of hope from a rod

Then I knew, that this was God
