My pain, Hides among, Beautiful darkness, Betwixt cracks, In my smile, Tears, Sometimes, Fill those cracks, And drown the pain, For awhile, My old friend, I call you, Out again, Hoping, You'll never, Learn to swim, In pools, Of...Silence. (Vickie Thayer) 2018

I love that version of the song, it is so powerful... Deep poem also, depression is a very difficult thing..
