Speak the truth.... even if your voice shakes and your heart breaks.

Crawling
creeping
slowly
but surely
it comes.
Wrapping around me
feeding on my pain
sapping my strength
this darkness is consuming my mind.
Please
somebody help me
or am I to far out...
Can no one see me?
or am I just alone in this place.
My grip is slipping
there is no light
how long will I fall
into this endless night?
Darkness or light
peace or reality
its too late
to turn back now.
I'm stuck like this
feeling so low
drowning in this darkness
drowning in MY darkness
watching everyone else breathe in the light.
