Midnight Sun

Midnight sun erases 
The darkness
Hidden in my soul
For so long
Forever hiding 
In emptiness
Waiting for the light to shine
Waiting for the path to clear
Waiting for someone to hear
Cries for help
Crying tears
Hiding fears
Shedding layers
Empty shell
Living there
Listening for a voice
Calling my name
Whispers echo
In my ear
Never relenting
Pain in my heart
Never to spare
Reaching out
To finally share
Open my heart
See what lives there
Content 
To live
Free to be
honest me
