My Friend

My darkness is my friend

She knows just what to say

She wraps her arms around me

And stays by me all day

When I am feeling lonely

She’s there to hold me tight

I love her chilling whispers

I crave the numbing night

Somedays I doubt her friendship

She says such awful things

But only out of love, she cries

I must ignore the sting

She yells that no one loves me

So to her arms I run

I just can’t shake the feeling

That I’m tired of being numb

I think I hate this darkness

I fear what she will do

She laughs at all my silent tears

And says that she’s not through

Her fingers close around my throat

Till I’m too sick to walk

I know that she will kill me

I know that she won’t stop

My darkness will not leave me

She’s woven through my veins

I think that I’ve stopped caring

I’m used to being in pain

I think it’s almost over now

She’s squeezing me so tight

I close my eyes and give it up

I’m far too tired to fight

I think this is very well done. We all have that darkness calling us. I learned that it is something not to be feared, but used, to create. Keep up the great work!
