Before They Take Away the Light

by Swallowed by Death   Jun 4, 2006


All around there is darkness,
and only one light,
i stare intently,
into the light.
the blue green in your eyes,
the feel of your kiss,
the soothing sight of just your smile,
the gentle feel of your touch,
my only light.
But how long until my only light begins to fade,
when they push us apart,
roughly tearing away the only thing i have left,
right before my own eyes.
how long do i have left,
before the bright blue of my eyes begin to fade,
into their original pale grey hatred,
not for you, but for them.
How many days will i count,
before they push you away,
ripping my heart out of my chest?
before these empty tears stream down my cheeks,
no longer rosy, but ghostly white?
How long before my light begins to fade away,
before i scream of darkness and pain,
before i can't think of anything but the light,
and how bright it used to be,
before i only dream of darkness, consuming every essence of my soul,
and then awake to darkness?
How long before they tear my light away?
