    The darkness comforts me
    sooths my eyes
    the light only blinds me
    with all of it's lies

    *I like this. Some things I would change is the second line. I would make it "soothes my heavy eyes" That way we see what't being soothed. and the last line the its doesn't need an apostrophe.*

    shadows of silence call my name
    they go quietly, just as they came
    cool shade and fear of light
    question what's wrong and right

    *I liked this stanza alot. It gave me a creepy feeling like I'm being watched.*

    i cannot hide what is in my soul
    a black empty pit, what is the toll
    to lead such unworthy demise
    i can't break free, my hands are tied

    *Flawless :) the words you used here really paint a sad picture for me. I loved this stanza.*

    silent grin on all their faces
    lead my mind to many places
    to fear the light and hide in the shade
    are consequences i have weighed

    *The second line was my favorite!!!! I love the way you describe your insanity. This was really good Ben :) Keep it up :) Nik*

    Wow this is really good. Its very intense and descriptive. Although, like the above comment, i think some lines might be a bit off...but apart from that you've done an excellent job. Keep it up.

    You are a FANTASTIC writer. I have a feeling I'm going to be reading much of your work!

    I really admire your style.

    The very last stanza was my favorite. Your word choice is very strong and interesting.

    Keep up the great work.
    5/5, well deserved.
