The darkness is so comforting
So quite and serene
Until it gets to be too loud
And all I hear is screams.
The darkness is so familiar
It's all I've ever known
Until it gets to be too much
And I'm just begging to go home.
The darkness is so safe
It saves me from myself.
Until I begin to realize
It's feeding off my health.
-A. G.

My old best friend made a meme version of this a while back. I thought I'd share with y'all.
Dankness
The dankness is so comforting
So quiet and serene
Until it get's to be too loud
And all I hear is DANK
The dankness is so familiar
It's all I've ever known
Until it get's to be too much,
And I'm just begging to go home
The dankness is so safe
It saves me from myself -(The dankness does that)
Until I begin to realize
It's feeding off my health. Dank.
