I Shed this Darkness

A past taking over me.
A future I can't see
With a present so hard,
Enduring all these falls.

Emotions aren't of use,
Having reached this truce
of suffering and pain
Crying my tears like the rain.

Yet, I see this light
So seemingly deem but bright.
Giving a reason to live,
But this darkness won't give.

So I'll remove these fears
And wash away my tears.
Sadness will turn to hope,
And my nightmares to dreams to cope.

So I shed this darkness,
Casting off my heartless
feelings of painful resent
No longer will I lament.
