This is a poem I wrote when I found out my spouse was cheating. It describes how I felt. |
Darkness looms I feel it coming It is like ice water in the veins Every breath is deep and hard I feel it coming behind me The darkness is coming for me I run to escape the dark I feel it on the back of my neck It's getting closer, I can feel it in the wind I run through the pain I curse away my tears Darker and darker it gets I feel myself being sucked into the night Why do I fight? I should give in and never see the light The is light is not bright Not anymore, the darkness is taking over My skin is chilled and iced It's easier if I don't put up a fight Why fight it, just give up The pain is so much to bear This isn't fair I shouldn't see the darkness I only wanted the light But that was long ago, I have lost the fight Take me in oh sweet night Make me whole No longer filled with fright The pain is numb I have succumb I am numb Darkness wins another fight again This is it The light is so dim Goodbye lying light Take me away I want to feel no pain Darkness I give up I stop in my tracks I let it take me in No more pain, no tears Fears Only darkness becomes my life. |
