Darkness
Darkness is around me,
I am hidden from the light,
The life that I strive to live in.
There was once a Bright Star,
It penetrated the dark.
The pain disappeared,
My life was healed.
The star left on its way,
And back came the pain,
Back came the shadow,
The life-sucking darkness.
I am shrouded in the dark,
The world doesn’t notice,
I can hide it like a master.
My own family is unaware
Of this darkness that I share,
Of this pain that I can’t bear.
I’m searching for a light,
Something shining in the night,
But all I’m rewarded with is darkness,
And I’m punished with more pain.
