My Friend, Darkness
I have a friend who's constantly there for me
when I needed to be alone,
when I wanted to express myself,
when the world and the people exhaust me,
when I Iet myself down,
when my hopes and dreams disappoint me,
and when I feel like giving up.
This friend always rescues me.
Some people tell me
that this friend is not a good influence,
it makes me question my sanity,
it leads me astray,
it keeps me locked away from everything
and it makes me unlove myself.
But I don't believe all of their lies
because darkness, is that one friend
who never leaves and who always got my back.
