Too Many Dark Nights

The day was ending
but her pain just beginning
Her thoughts were threatening
And her screams were deafening
The lights went low
But her mind started to go
Her journey had been long
And everything she said was wrong
No one had noticed her thoughts
Are what truly tied the knots
Of the rope that was hung
On that one little rung
That would take a girl's light
After too many dark nights
