At Home In the Darkness

At Home In The Darkness I am not afraid of dying I have spent a thousand years in darkness Hiding behind a million nightmares My existence is not what my heart told me it would be I live wanting and wishing for an elusive moment One moment of light truth and hope All I have is the burn of my tears The sweet saltiness of my blood Tears on my flesh open to the putrid air The world rejected me My thoughts were too off the wall I was too different and did not want to change That was their mistake to make They chose and I fled into the darkness It is where I belong…where I survive But I am not afraid of dying I have spent a thousand years in darkness It is my home and that is all I deserve
