Darkness
The darkness is haunting me
Like a ghost in the night
I try to stay in the light
Try to push away the darkness
The pain and sadness
But it always finds its way back in
I wish I could run away
But it never goes away
Never leaves my head
It haunts me
It never leaves me alone
I try and be happy but it won't let me
It's like a drug that stays in my body
Giving all kinds of side effects
It digs at my pain and sadness
It brings up memories I try and forget
I just want a be happy
But I will never be happy with this darkness inside me

I have been through a lot and that shows in my poems. I wish that I could just let someone open up my mind and see it for them self but since that can not happen I put it down on paper and let people see it that way....I just hope they don't judge me because of it.
