I'm welcomed with darkness I've grown to know.
But its different this time, it has an almonous glow.
I feel something turning inside me.
Is there something I can't see?
I shudder with fear,
Hoping nothing is near.
Being welcomed by darkness isn't all that great.
Its been welcoming me since I was eight.
Why you ask?
You'll know when I remove my mask.
Its something I don't share,
Its something that doesn't care.
It has destroyed my family and friends.
It seems like it never ends.
This darkness I see and feel,
Its real I tell you, its real.
Without a face,
It can't find its place.
This darkness I've learned to love,
Isn't what's above.
Tell me I'm crazy, but this will never end,
Because this welcoming darkness is my only friend.
You can try to save me,
But this darkness you will not see.
I hide in the shadows of the pure,
Hoping one day I'll find a cure.
I can scream, and pretend its only a dream,
I can cry, wanting to die.
But death won't even end this welcoming darkness.
