Darker
My heart is starting to feel darker
I used to giggle and grin at every remark
But now that usual joy seems damp
Like bitter-sweetness gnawing at my spirit
Everytime I smile
I can feel my eyes show my pain
That lies deep in my soul, growing
Like weeds choking out a fruitful garden
This emptiness is starting to hurl me into an abyss
Only getting deeper and darker by the day
The void is severing me from the world
Dividing me from new companions and dearest friends
The seperation is filling my heart with even more sorrow
And it overflows from me
Leaking out an ominous
Which wards off those scared of it's deepness
Maybe one day I'll finally grip the edge of the darkness
And I will drag myself out of it
Onto a meadow I haven't seen in what seems ages
And there I'll find myself greeted by smiles, and a second chance for tomorrow
