Darkness

darkness.
What I've lived in for so long.
Yea, the light flickered a little when i thought
i was in love.
When i realized I wasn't, back came the darkness
to claim my soul.
When i actually fell in love with you
there was a new blinding light that
surrounded me wherever I looked.
Then you left and that light vanished.
Along with all my hopes and dreams.
Now I'm left in the darkness again.
Awaiting your return that will turn back on my light.
Awaiting something that will never happen.
Awaiting alone
in 
the darkness.
