Losing the Luster of Life

Alone

Darkness comes and it prevails,

Covering my face like a black veil,

It hides my tears,

And masks my fears,

But the darkest cloak can't hide my pain,

I'm still at least partially sane,

Slowly and quietly I walk alone,

Just like I do at my own home,

I'm used to this feeling of aloneness,

It reels me in like a dark temptress,

Alone.
