The darkness

The darkness comes when you least expect it, it hides in the light of most of us, it waits for us to let go, it eats away at our souls, nobody knows.
some of us spend our lives hiding it, slapping on a smile for those judging minds, those piercing eyes.
it eats our happiness and nobody hears our desperate cries, nibbles at our pride.
But darkness, you cannot have me. i am stronger than you, i can fight my way through, i see the light ahead of me, for years now i have been running through your tunnel of darkness to reach the light. The light tells me to come, but you forbid it, never reaching the light my soul seeks, you break me, you tell me to end this pain, but the light i can never reach keeps calling my name. tells me i can make it, I've been running forever now. You broke me twice before and the tears are seeping the light you stole, each day got harder on my soul, but i have not froze, i will run forever until i make it to the light i seek.i will find it in me to take this curse and break it, the screams, the scars, they are all in the past, and darkness this is coming from my soul, this hold you have over me WILL NOT LAST.
