Eternal Darkness

by Amy   Apr 8, 2004


The darkness consumes me
body and soul
takes over my mind
and the life it stole

My body numb
emotions unknown
my heart now cold
as hard as stone

Plunged into despair
a world so cold
a world filled with hate
where everything is sold

Nothing is sacred
not even ones life
something so fragile
can be taken away
with a slash of a knife

I used to believe
in faith and love
i believed in you
my angel from above

But you quickly turned
to an angel of death
another voice
whispering to me inside my head

Started out like a rose
then the beauty faded away
all i have left now is
black rose petals
and memories of yesterday

To take away the pain
i sometimes sit upon my bed
drag the knife across my skin
blood like rubies, deep red

I hide away my feelings
refuse to let them out
i don't want to let anyone close
or show them what I'm about

I'm better off this way
alone in the depths of my pain
forever this way
will i always remain.
