I can barely see the light
Just close enough to tease me

The darkness is all around
Painful
A constant reminder of more dark to come
Always there, torturing me

I can never reach the light
As hard as I try
It stays far enough away to be just out of reach
But so close I can see it
Stare
And look away before it sees me

I can only hope the light will come to me
Find me
Save me
Until then, I will live out my life in the darkness [comments] => 5 [counter] => 193 [topic] => 32 [informant] => high_on_duct_tape [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

My Life In The Darkness

Encased in darkness
I can barely see the light
Just close enough to tease me

The darkness is all around
Painful
A constant reminder of more dark to come
Always there, torturing me

I can never reach the light
As hard as I try
It stays far enough away to be just out of reach
But so close I can see it
Stare
And look away before it sees me

I can only hope the light will come to me
Find me
Save me
Until then, I will live out my life in the darkness

Thank you! I just write what I feel, and I guess that is kinda creepy... Since I'm new, the good reviews mean a lot. Thanks!
