Hello 

By Chanda Healton Burton 

Hello darkness, my only friend. 

I can't say I'm happy to see you again. 

I'm tired of the twisted games we play.

I'm tired of the heartache that won't go away.

Hello nightmares, my only dreams.

I can't say life is what it seems.

I'm tired of being sick, 

I'm tired, broken like a stick.

Hello? Can anyone hear me?

I need to be free.

I need this pain to end.

I need a friend.

Hello darkness my only friend.

Why? Why are you haunting me again?

I need someone to hold me tight.

I must escape this dark and dreary night.
