Light ( where should I put it)

Darkness sweeps in to your soul
without your notice, corroding.
Changing you in frightening ways.

Friends are noticing, leaving.
Family sees it, shaking their heads.
Doing nothing, they just sit, watch.

Falling down a dark tunnel
slowly losing your fight against darkness.
It is blackening your heart, clogging it up.

Night is falling on your life, creeping up.
Wanting to end you, you want it to.
Suddenly the light starts shinning
Breaking the hold the darkness had.

A new friend, your star
Someone to believe in you is all you needed.
Slowly you become the person you were before
But never being truly the same.

It changed you forever, the darkness
But you are better for it
You'll never forget that.
Always thankful for your light.
