The Darkness Envelopes

by Daniel Milano   Sep 1, 2007


Do ya know what it feels like to be victimized?
Always being fed false hope and given twisted lies?
Its the feeling of pure loneliness simply being trapped inside...
A crisis which seems so bad it cant possibly happen twice,
So sad every giggle of laughter just grows black and dies,
Blistered by clouds of pain engulfing both body and brain,
Death and misery swells and shows itself clogging the drain,
Sun shrinks and vanishes from view, surrounded in dark fog as it rains,
Eaten alive fresh from inside, the tension builds,
Each mention of the pain thats dispensing kills,
A space of blank pure nothingness grows deeper and less is filled,
Each new question pondered is one more unanswered the thought known to grow fonder,
Known to to infect and destroy bonds that are,
Kept between two souls both holding the same affection,
Melts away and slips from hands untold, your friends walk out and your stuck with your own reflection,
You realize what things aren't worth losing because of your own choosing,
Its time to go gather confidence and courage before Suicidal imagery checks in,
Its about time for a mental correction...
I step into a world unknown to me, i gaze into lights bright and birds singing,
I slowly smile and the hurt Ive been grieving packs quick and flies out until next sad season,
I greet family and hugs get passed like wild, the memory of their happy faces kept me from committing to my own exile,
I like it here.... you know what?
I think ill stay for a while! ;)
