Darkness
In darkness my soul resides,
Searching for hope when there is none.
Hope and hopelessness divides.
I just want to say, “I’m done.”

All I find is endless sorrow.
A void that was never filled.
Pain is where I wallow.
My search for joy has been killed.

My soul is searching for what was lost.
I’m lost in a sea far away from shore.
To keep living, I am forced.
My heart longs for so much more.

I am trapped within an endless cycle,
A prisoner of my past.
My emotions seem to forever spiral.
But I long for the day where I am free at last.
