This is me when I can't take it anymore,
This is me when the world around me crashes down,
...and the lies are stripped away.
This is me when reality sets in.
And this is me when I have no one to talk to,
...no where left to run, no tears left to cry!
This is me, the real me, welcome to my hell!
This is me when all hope is lost,
This is me when I can't stand anymore,
This is me when even God has forsaken me!
This is me when the darkness overpowers me,
...when all I love fades away.
This is me as the strength to breathe leaves my lungs,
And this is me when my heart slowly stops beating.
YES, this is me when life has no meaning, n
I struggle against the darkness,
I feel it's strong grip, tugging against my soul.
I am fighting for my life, my being!
As I inch forward I hear a small voice,
I don't understand what it is saying so I stop for a moment.
The laughing the tells me I am worthless, I am nothing, I am lost.
I scream and struggle again, the voice only chuckles as it keeps delivering messages of despair.
I begin to weaken, I can't do this. I kneel down and bow my head, the darkness builds upon my back.
My forehead touches the floor, it's so cold and dark, Oh so dark!
Suddenly the darkness recedes a little, I can feel the breath taking weight on my back les

The Light Behind the Shadow
I'm standing in shadows dark and lonely,
I stumble, for my steps I cannot see
I concentrate on touch and sound only,
Darkness overwhelming my sensory
With scratched and bleeding, hands and knees that burn,
I crawl along the cold and darkened earth
I blunder forward, guessing when to turn,
My path eludes me, where in darkness birth
The brilliant light that cast the shadow dark,
Where are you now? I seek you ever more
No, t'was not light to blame for shadow's mark
My own faults that block your face I adore.
Your voice echo's softly, sweetly to me,
And now, through darkness parting, I can see.
Silence so loud your head hurts from the intensity. Turn on the music, murder the silence. Distance your thoughts, give up your soul. Let the melody take over, Kill the pain. Absorb the emotion, feel your world go numb. Watch as time swirls around you. Close your eyes and let go.
