In the Darkness



In the Darkness
(When Darkness is All I Can Think About - Edited)

I’ve lost you in the darkness
Why do you have to go? I’m only 15
I can’t see you when I need to
But they say you can’t hide from me if I fall into darkness

Your pain is gone, but you have left it for me
They say after my light goes out I will find you
But if I escape life, my pain will be left for others
Sometimes I think darkness is the only way out

Is falling through the darkness worth it?
Is there a brighter flashlight for me?
Can I be strong and never give in?

People say you have given in
How can they say that?
All your life you have stayed there and held on for me
How can they say that?
You fell long after the dark came after you

Your strength is the reason I never turned off the light of life,
But now you’re gone.
Can I find enough of you
To keep me from plunging myself into the dark?

One thing absolutely
If I drop myself in to the dark I will never return,
Return to the light of life
Return to my friends
Or even return to my life that’s just so distressed

I love you, please let me have the strength to keep the fight.
I want to show people that I’m strong like you.
At 15, I need help to keep on going
I need you. It scares me that I think like this
I need some one anyone who will care.

I lost my little brother 2 and a 1/2 years ago... and I still cant handle it... on 2/26/07 he would have turned 19... life is difficult even more so when one tends to hide the emotions... the hurt... the pain...

at times it does become unbearable... but dont hide in solitude... open up and talk to a friend...

This one does not tell you who it was. The person I was talking about was my mom.

I like this one better I think... Still my heart is broken no matter what into its tiny pieces that rip into the ground. Like tiny shards of crystal*Hug* ~Gothic
