Silence.
Darkness.
Death.
People laugh and friends are made but I hear only silence.
The world spins and the sun shines but I see only darkness.
There's nothing here and there can only ever be death.
Silence.
Darkness.
Death.
I no longer speak and it adds to the silence.
I no longer open my eyes and it adds to the darkness.
I no longer have a will to live and it adds to the death.
Silence.
Darkness.
Death.
There's an angel who turns the silence to laughter.
There's a guide who turns the darkness to light.
There's a savior who turns death into life.
Laughter.
Light.
Life.
