DARK


Lights out.. darkness in.
In the name of Jesus, you can't come in.
I know you. I know you all to well.
You come as a person, but your truth unveils.
You are what I pray against... hell.
Eventually, someone will tell.
Cold like the first snowfall of the year.
Fear fell on deaf ears.
Head is woozy like as if I stood up too fast.
You want my future to be my past.
I'm not even sure if my heart knew it was breaking.
And even if it did, there was no human cure for the aching.
Seconds turned to days. Days turned to years.
Frozen in time, only internal tears.
Breathe so I know you are alive.
Nothing there, just the soul of dark eyes.
