DARK


I see darkness, 
don't feel like myself.
I see my shadow,
killing someone else.


I see light,
tried to grab it,
I see my shadow,
already had it.


I tried to stay alive,
but its not as easy as I thought,
went through some real shit,
and now I'm lost.


I realised it wasn't someone else,
who my shadow killed,
it was me,
and now I'm dark myself.
