I am a Slave of Darkness
The torment has consumed my soul
I am left with only sadness
A blackened heart with a gapping hole
I am a slave of darkness
A prisoner in the pit of despair
The demons will devour me
And I no longer care
I am a slave of darkness
For my light has gone out
I drift away in silence
Loathing in self doubt
I am a slave of darkness
Standing with broken wings
I try to find a tune
But my heart no longer sings
I am a slave of darkness
I feel so alone
I’ll drown in my tears
The sea of sorrow has come to take me home
I am a slave of darkness
There is no way to set me free
For I am a slave of darkness
That’s where I’m meant to be
I am a slave of darkness
I long for only peace
There is no escape
Where will I get my release
I am a slave of darkness
I beg for a quick death
For only will I be free
When I take my final breath

My poetry and stories come from experience. Sometimes the only way to battle the darkness is to trap it on a page.
