Dark Embrace

The darkness swallows me. The shine and warmth I once felt has faded to all black and stillness. The cold embraces my every thought as I struggle. For a last breath in this pain ridden rollercoaster ride through the world. The thundering silence rings louder and I become more confused as I search for what I once knew to be absolute and true. The sun will rise but I will not notice. My will, will keep me moving, the difference is I will have to go along with out you. Here in darknest shadow you will find a man. Broken and beat torn down, a little worse for wear. For he is me and I am him and with time ill change or ill just give in, and sit hunched on the floor of my mind not giving a even care. His heart is my heart and its still in despair. Quietly we fiddle trying to repair trying to make it work but all the damage it has takenits toll just going to take it, put it behind a wall so no one can find it no one at all.
