The moon rose above the sky
Twinkling stars sent a warning sign
I slipped inside all alone giving sleep a try
My room clicked locking you out from my confineSafe inside with your hand on my door
The knob wobbles and shakes asking to be let in
But without you my spot is safe on the floor
My blanket covers my eyes and holds me downI never noticed the air in my lungs disappear
As shadows closed in and my vision grew unclear
I didn't mind seeing stars in my eyes instead of fear
The darkness that took me was warm and dearTaken all alone in the night
I thought your fights were violent
Only the light that led me meant any harm
And I was the only compliance
You wanted me back safely in your armsI'm lost in a void of my own design
Where solace and sorrow silently entwine
The lock I turned to find peace has sealed my fate
In the quiet, I realize it's too late.
