The Darkness Inside

You walk around,

surrounded by friends

or maybe just followers

they adore you

look up to you

respect you

they love your happiness

you spark

but they don't know

only I see

the darkness inside you

the shadows churn through you

I see you battle it

I watch you fail

you are transformed

into a creature of dark

but while you smile

like nothing's wrong

only I know

your darkness inside.
