Answer Me This Jessy Clay Riddle

Answer me this
do you enjoy watching pain 
do you enjoy watching suffering
I fell in love 
but that means nothing to you
my heart broke
you never gave me a chance
I tried to make it work
was it never meant to be
you turned your back on me 
left me lying in my misery
to cry in pain an beg for you to come back
I know it wont happen 
you’ve probably found someone else
you must be happy
while I sit here depressed
the blade cuts deeper every time I think of you
soon it will pierce my heart
its sunken in
my heart will bleed for you
you’re the last thing I remember
such a happy memory
stained with reality
as the blood drains
my heartbeat fades away
I'm happy now
so close to you
its just a dream I awake
to face the pains of another day

Dark

The shadows lurking in the dark

A light that only makes a spark

Illuminates the road ahead

My feet feel like lead

As I trudge along beneath the trees

The wind whispering on the breeze

I move the branches from my face

As I keep um my steady pace

Not very far to go

The things that await I do not know

I see a light as bright as can be

It awakens the soul inside of me

At last the place I’ve been searching for

Now my heart can rest once more
