The Darkness Inside

The darkness inside rushes out
Knocks those over who dare stand in the way
Blackens their soul as it seeps in
Never again see the light of the day
An aching void is left behind
It blackens out the sun
Nothing ever grows there
The war inside was won
Past mistakes weigh heavily
The price you had to pay
Nothing seems to make any sense
And you’ve never had your say
The minutes pass like hours
The void begins to ache
You wander through the darkness
This beast you have to break
You feel its torment daily
its scars, upon your mind
you long to climb out of yourself
to leave the void behind
but fear keeps its grip on you
drags you into the abyss
you fight to win your battle
for the sunlight you will miss
