The Darkness

I have been trapped in a place I have lost my home and everyone I know The key has been lost to my escape Now the darkness that creeps in at night No one is coming and no one can hear my thoughts I can’t escape this place I can’t break free at all The darkness is filling me while I miss Lauren Even though we are close Stairs are trapping us apart from the life outside Seeing Abby cry made my heart sink deeper and deeper While sitting in the darkness of my thoughts There is never an end but always a beginning Normally walls are safe if you know what's going on outside But not here I have lost myself and the others I have ever had What would life be like if the limit wasn’t alive
