Darkness

From the mantel I'm baffled at what i become

Not me ever feeling numb

Creatively i shimmer away from the light

Till darkness takes over and it becomes night

Trying to hold on to a thread of hope

But my measures have left me but nothing to cope

I twist and pull my ways out of sight

When anyone ask i just say I'm alright

But despite my calling to help a hand

I'm not a gifted one name band

My comfort is in the stars above

For they gave me something to look up to love

Is the weakness that sets in when my world is going for a spin

Until the day that it will end

I comprehend the magnitude i suffer in silence

Not looking past my past of breaking things and violence

But growing old and knowing I'm running of fumes

Quickly covered up by sand dunes

I relate to not seeing any light in the room but my screen

Wondering if I'm seen

To believe I've lost my way a long time ago

Just needing someone to talk to bro

Chill your in your mind again

Just nestle close to a friend

And know this isn't hell its just high water

Let the mind swim free like a otter

Take place your own reflection to something you can face

Life is a test not a race

Writing in the dark has always gave me comfort

To get through the bad the good and the hurt

I choose to let lose my display of guidance

To think there is a chance

That one day il walk perfect in the light

Knowing I'm moon child and the darkness is my fight

To say everything will be alright

Rather pouring rain or sunshine

Il be fine with time

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger they say

Well for once i just wanna be okay
