The Darkness Within
The darkness within, made darkness around. I looked everywhere for a way. I could not see, any way out. I just wanted to end that day. Years ticked away, like seconds in time. Nothing I did would succeed. My spirit was crushed, with torment and pain. Longing for me to be freed. I thought of the pain, and of hopeless attempts. How desperate I was for a goal. Then one day I thought, of smelling a rose. That's what brought peace to my soul. I thought of the good, and smiled with glee. In darkness I built up the light. I had control, of how I could feel. The darkness was gone from my sight.
