Daylight

Daylight

There is no light

Not anymore

There used to be light in me but I can't find it anymore

How can one become so deep and dark

How can I let you continue to destroy me

I try to yell but no noise comes out

I let you rob me of happiness

I'm filled with sadness, then I rebuild myself to happiness

You come and rob me and leave me back to the darkness I wanted to avoid

I don't trust...

I don't trust because everyone I trusted ruined it

I rely on myself because I'm alone in this big world

I stand tall on the outside but I'm crawling to the finish line

The cry for help wasn't' a cry, but I beg a plea

I'm too busy helping rebuild everything around me that falls that I'm not rebuilding myself

I'm letting me stay broken so no one can feel the pain and hollowness I feel

It's okay....

I accept this is who I am

I accept I will never get better

I accept all of this but sometimes I fight like hell to change it

I fight like hell sometimes to remember who I used to be

It's dark and lonesome but I'm a fighter

I lurk in the dark shadows trying to find the person I once was and thinking maybe I'll be back

This is really really good if my only complaint I may have that is conflicting with me is that at the very beginning you rhyme "anymore" with "anymore" this bothered me more than it should but that's just how I am so take this with a grain of salt, and do keep it up you've got talent.

I'm really glad you liked it. Especially from a writer like yourself.

I'm overwhelmed....or perhaps overjoyed?
To hear someone hold such high regards for both my writing and style of writing... This makes me happy I signed up for the site to share my literature instead letting it gather dust in a beaten up journal.

Thank you and Sincerely, Your Friend Sir_Anonymous
