Darkness.

Darkness has enveloped me,

the two of us now one.

For darkness was always there,

when friends were few to none.

 

I say again,

we have become one,

For she knows she’ll never die.

If she can hold onto the likes of me,

she surely shall get by.

 

Now darkness seeps through to my teeth,

the white a mere fake dye.

And all the while, though I smile,

I spew a filthy lie.

 

Darkness hides within my hair,

my skin thickened through her tries.

To dissever me and sicken me,

from all those passing by.

 

And oh the lie,

That filthy lie.

The one that sends all, all in all,

to take a piece and fly.

 

That very lie,

darkness trained in I,

to speak so fluently

to all those passing by.

 

That I’m okay,

That all is well.

and please, oh dear, oh my.

 

don’t you dare touch my sleeve,

don’t you dare grasp my heart,

don’t look,  don’t speak, don’t pry.

 

For it hides the truth,

that horrid truth,

that truly I’m to blame.

For all the pain,

and all the vain,

that darkness has entrained.

 

She feeds on any in her path,

so as we may still try,

To find a way - oh darkness say!

Will we together survive?

 

And darkness is all that which I write,

to try and simply,

So simply,

get by.

 

And darkness is all that I have,

in foes, and friends,

and lovers passing by.

 

Darkness had enveloped me,

I speak truths, not lies!

For darkness was always there,

when I could never cry.
