Darkness

All alone

in the dead of night

I'm still in the light

but still feel this fright.

No one to save me from

this cold, dark place

I no longer hear

or see your face.

Starting to slip

Into nevermore

I say my goodbyes

with little remorse.

Please don't leave me in this bed

hold me a little longer,

Even though I'm now dead.

"It's time to leave this world"

I say as my once beautiful body

begins to decay.

As I sit in eternal darkness

forgetting all purpose.

I'll hold onto my thoughts of you

that is my promise.
