"The dark is comforting in a strange light;
I am consumed into the depths of the unknown.
The shadows that form in my memory
Beckon me to stay here alone.
I am lost within myself
With no sign of escape.
Hopelessness is no longer a fear,
But rather a life long state.
I've tried to see light amongst hardships,
Though the light leaves me vulnerable and afraid.
My life dwindles beneath me,
And the darkness becomes my safe place.
If there is no way out of this terror I've endured,
Then let my thoughts take me away.
Knowingly, I will drown in my sorrows,
For no one else can truly relate."
