Darkness
Darkness
I feel it
Rising inside,
Eating away at my soul
Like maggots to dead skin.
I hate it
Try to rid myself of it
Day and night
Night and day
When will this torment end?
I tell you, if you have light,
You will survive:
No pain, suffering.
But if you
Engulfed and dancing
With darkness
And you do not find light,
You will suffer
Forever,
Forever
But I try!
I try!
Try more,
I tell you.
Lord, take this
Darkness: sin
Away!
Far away!
Farther than
East and West!
Light and Dark!
Separate these vultures
From my decaying soul!
Make me a new one!
Let me
Live with you,
Be like you
Forever,
No suffering.
Forever,
Forever.
I will.
I have.
