Fade into the Shadows

Heart is aching.
Pain is rising.
Overflow has been reached.

It breaks the surface,
without hesitation,
the dam has been breached.

The sadness flows free,
inside and out.
Each breath a struggle.

Can you feel it,
pulling everything apart.
All these emotions I juggle.

Shadows dance slowly,
stealing the last of the light.
Nothing but black now.

The path is gone,
everything is wrong,
I have to make it somehow.

Each step is heavier,
nothing is ever easy.
Must push on.

Heart is breaking,
pain is swelling,
everyone I love is gone.

Everything is gone.
