Waves of Despair

October 01, 2012 ------------------- Darkness surrounds me day and night Thorns shrouding the light Through the thicket can you really see who I am Or do you only pretend to understand Whispers haunt me in the midnight Say my name, calling to me though they're out of sight quiet the words of hate before it's all too late quiet the words of hate quiet the words of hate Drown me under the waves of despair Their words coming in pairs "sadness""wake-up""BECCA!" screaming invading, infecting my mind, am I dreaming? Drown me under the waves of despair Drown me under the waves of despair
