I sit alone in the darkness , with no one around me.
There is no one around me.
No one to listen to my prayers.
No one to listen to my screams of agony.
Maybe this once , just this once , i will be able to let my trapped feelings run free , since no one will ever be able to hear them in this darkness , this enveloping darkness that wishes to claim me.
Yet , i stand on this darkness out of my own free will , i alone decided to isolate myself.
The feelings that had once kept me up and smiling slowly turned against me , drowning me in despair , betraying me and my ideals.
They slowly planted their seeds of betrayal inside me , acting as salvation , when in reality they only brought ruin.
But again , i will not falter. No matter how many times they try to destroy me , nor how many times they accomplish their foul objective.
I'll keep rising.
I'll keep fighting.
I'll rebuild my heart piece by piece , even if it's the life of a machine.
Even if it's a lie.
I'll rise and give my everything for others.
This enveloping darkness is a sweet temptation.
This darkness is all that i've ever wanted.
Yet , i don't deserve to rest.
Not while people are still suffering in this world.
I'll be strong for those that can't fight for themselves.
I'll fight for them.
I'll carry their burdens and despair and turn them into something beautiful , something they'll be proud of.
Even if it means loosing myself in the process , i will save them from the enveloping darkness.
Even if it means letting this darkness envelop me in the process.
