Darkness

There comes a time when we must let go. To all the things that we once held so close. Not 
knowing which way the wind will blow. It will bring us up or it will knock us down. And leave 
us all alone. In the dark and with an empty soul. And we can not get this feeling out. The 
pain will just keep bringing us down. Well I guess I should say me instead of us. For I have 
givin up on all hope. And I do not care anymore. Because I do not love anymore. My heart is 
no longer an open door. I do nott have anymore love to give away. My whole damn life is 
blowing away. I cant think straight and my mind always goes blank. Not knowing what to 
think or say. Or even be happy on a sunny day. Cuase I rather it be dark and hear the rain. 
I want to hear the thunder around me. I want to feel it when the lighting hits the ground. I 
want to scream out into the darkness and see what comes after me. I want to rip my heart 
right out and just sit on the ground. I need to pray for a way out. But I have a monster in 
me right now. And it wont come out. Eating my heart away. Telling me its time to end this 
today. And I am fighting for life. And every breath I take. Because the monster doesnt want 
me to live. It wants to take me away. And is killing me everyday.
