Take it all away

My fears, my thoughts, my worries

Return my soul please.

Dark death surrounds me

Suffocating happiness

Breathe life back in me.

My own reflection

Instills new fear, a stranger

Judging my actions.

If you could hear me

just the pain in my silence

would be deafening.

I have lost myself

Drifting from day to nightfall

In a dark abyss.

Deep breaths escape me

Warm tears find their way instead

Streaking my veiled smile.

In all my darkness

I search for you, my safe place

In your arms and words.

My sunlight at night

You bring forth much more than warmth

You bring me my love.
