I loved the child in him
so innocent and sweet
The mischief in his eyes
the blush upon his cheek
The tender way he spoke
that showed me that he cared
The touch of his warm hand
that gently touched my hair
The smiles that we shared
that filled my life with glee
For when I was with him
I found the child in me
Hold so tightly
that you push me away.
Your actions contradict
the words that you say.
Crush me,
so that I can’t breathe.
You request my answer
and you still disbelieve.
Patience is a virtue—
silence a gift.
Your words a noose—
my pain a cliff.
Talk at me,
in condescending tones.
Sometimes,
I’d really rather just be alone.
I gave all you asked of me,
I gave more than I had,
I stayed by your side in your times of great pain,
I lost my light inside,
I began to love,
I began to care,
You saw that dark desire,
And took of it what pleased you,
And away with it you fled,
With it you took my heart,
With it you stole my soul,
So now I wander lost,
Hating those who chipped away my being,
Did you have to be so cruel,
For now in my nothingness,
forever I must crawl.
Its so strong now.
The Darkness.
It has never been so strong before.
Im exausted.
I cant fight The Darkness anymore.
Im done.
I embrace it.
I can feel it eating me.
My heart.
My soul.
Build them,
The Walls.
No one can hurt me now.
Im a shadow.
Small as a peanut,
Big as a giant,
We're all the same size
When we turn off the light.
Rich as a sultan,
Poor as a mite,
We're all worth the same
When we turn off the light.
Red, black or orange,
Yellow or white,
We all look the same
When we turn off the light.
So maybe the way
To make everything right
Is for us all to turn off the light!
