Darkness lingers in the corners of my mind
He waits for my thoughts to stay still…he waits for me to feel him near
He waits for the calm…then slithers his way in
Darkness tries to find a way to make me feel fear
That will never happen I say to him, unless you hurt the ones I hold dear
Darkness is evil…Darkness is not kind
He pulls on my heart… He pulls on my soul…
He takes away my hopes…my dreams…he burrows until I am no longer whole
I knew you would return my Darkness
Here we go again
I feel the pain…it cuts so deep…
Darkness I say… Why do you cause me such pain
Darkness never answers you see
He just stares and waits for me
Once again I face him…with great pain in my heart
How I wish I never knew him…how I wish this didn’t start
I just keep pushing forward…I watch as he slithers back from where he came
I was ready for him this time… You see I know how to play his game
A wonderful piece… after darkness comes new light…

Darkness has always been my synonym of choice for depression, so anything that uses that same premise immediately speaks directly to me. 🙂

I’m controlled. Mostly, I’m calm and things don’t phase me. But some things cannot be allowed. Should not be allowed to flourish. Must be ripped out, root and branch. I hope that doesn’t make you think less of me.

Darkness is the one that caused my pain Pelgris. He took a lot from me. Who I am I have fought to be.

My response is this: Fuck that guy. And every worthless piece of shit like him. Sorry if my language offends,but I cannot stress enough how much that kind of thing angers me.

wow Pelgris, was not expecting that from you. No apologies necessary. I haven’t really felt anger yet, at least not for long. Maybe someday I will
