Into Darkness
Fate balances in my hands
A swaying lover
Caught up in the embrace
A flick of the wrist
Is all that it takes
To the darkness I awake
Nowhere fills the rear view mirror
As the answer
Makes itself clear
My future has become
Stained with your blood
The scars of tomorrow
Forged in the fires of tonight
As bells ring in the distance
Marking the end of a life
In your memories
I'll try to hide
Shut out the world
To find something greater
Than this pain
But hollow hope will leave me afloat
To drown
In this mess I've made
Now home
Isn't a place I stay
It's a feeling
That's washed away
The past has long since passed
Me by
Just a faint flash of pain
Hidden inside
These eyes
Keep on searching them
But you won't find me
This straight jacket smile
Is so bright it's blinding
The distraction in place
So i can finally make
My escape
To the darkness I awake
Filled with raw
Filled with raw emotion...made me tear. Beautifully expressed, and tenderly human. thank you.
