Shadows

I see the darkness
Overtaking the light
I can't control them
In this black plight

It only gets worse
Day by day
There's nothing to do
To make it go away

All you can see
Around you is gone
You just stay still
You can't move on

There is no time
For you to cry
All you think of doing
Is wanting to die

Shadows have made
The sky grow dark
They take away
Every bright spark

They're coming in now
Closer around
I feel their pressure
Force me into the ground

I watch inattentively
As life goes passed
Not like I'd anything
To make it last

I'm trying my hardest
To just become me
The shadows are winning
But one day I'll be free

Author notes

Another newie but oldie. It speaks of hope in your darkest hour. Well, when I wrote this one, I was in the middle of something, and now I can say, I've seen the end of the tunnel. I'm free.
