There's many shades of black
hidden from the likes of you and me
for if you haven't wondered the darkness
there would be no way for you to see
within the shadows of the night
under the eyes of the moon
a broken heart bleeds on out
over a lost love gone too soon
shall that pain forever harden
bearing strength upon my hands
beneath the barren soil of my soul
will I arise a fruitful better man
from living in that darkness
I've seen the many shades of light
and one thing is for certain
it'll never be too dark to fight..

Rage
Content Warning: Domestic Violence, Assault Rage D. A. Ratliff “Who did this?” My voice echoed through the house. All I wanted was a cup of tea, but one of the twins, running through the house like maniacs, knocked it over. My nerves tingled, and every muscle in my body felt coiled like a spring. Survival seemed out of reach.
