My Darkness

My Darkness

I tried everything within my power
To rid you from my mind.
Everything in the books
From A to Z.
I tried it all and your still there
Speaking to me in tongue;
In riddles that I will never solve.

But now I see
That you are a part of me.
Something that won’t leave
And you embrace me
In your cold deadly arms.
There’s nothing
That I can do.
I try so hard
To break from your suffocating grasp.

Your fingers are cold
As they wipe away my tears.
Your whispers are haunting
As you try and smother my fears.
Your breath is as dead as can be.
Your nothing but
An undeserving lie
As you strip me
Of all my sanity.

And I try not
To think of where you came from.
And I try not
To think of how you came to be.
And I try not
To wonder why you haunt me.
And I try not
To see my memories.

But there you are
Like a lovely appalling scar.
You tell me things
That I don’t want to hear.
But you won’t go away
And leave me alone.
Cause now I know
Just what you are.

And I try not
To listen to your lies.
And I try not
To let you get to me.
And I try not
To let you freeze me in fear.
And I try not
To think of what you are.

The power that you hold
Is greatly captivating.
This power that you hold
Over me.
It’s so enlightening to know
That you nothing more
Than a bunch of lies
Living in my head.

But now I see
What was never meant to be.
I see you there
Standing and staring with all your might.
You know what you are
And use it against me
Like the back-stabbing shadow you are.
Now I know
Just what you are.
And now I know
That there is nothing I can do.

And I try not
To think about you.
And I try not
To see you standing there.
And I try not
To focus on your gleaming smirk.
And I try not
To her your words.

And I try not
To hear you shrilling laughter.
And I try not
To hear you scream.
And I try not
To let you win.
And I try not
To know what you are.

And I try not
To think about it.
And I try not
To let you in.
And I try not
To let myself ponder
On how this came to be.
And I try not
To see my darkness.
My ever ruling darkness.
My Darkness.
