The Shadows of the Night

02/3/16

No one knows how to find me, 
I scream in agonizing pain but no one hears me,
Still no one gets it, no one can see,
I’ve tried telling everyone even by begging and pleading,
How this darkness has taken every emotion and drained
me completely.
Empty, 
I feel empty,
I’m trying to scream for someone to help me.
I’m suffering trying to find my way out of this darkness,
But it’s difficult when the thoughts in my head are turning to madness,
Strangely enough I don’t even feel sadness,
All I feel is the consumption of this darkness,
And it’s starting to feel like I’m not even conscious.
I’m a walking body wandering around aimlessly,
Steadily thinking about ending it shamelessly,
I must ask of you to not think any less of me,
I was a girl with a soul and now I’m completely empty.
