Dear Darkness

You promise to protect me,

To care for and love me 

I believed you 

I trusted you 

You lied to me 

You fooled everyone, you fooled me 

I can't forgive the pain you gave me

It runs through my bones, to my soul

You took everything from me 

You took my only love,

My lighthouse through the storms 

It's my fault

I was naïve and gullible 

You liked that, it fueled your sickness 

Just the thought of you, brings me to my knees 

You destroyed my being

Everything inside is gone 

I'm empty, a hollow shell of a girl who once prided herself on strength 

You broke me piece by piece 

Peeling away, layer by layer,  to my bones 

Why must you torture me?

I'm done with your games 

You can't hurt me anymore 

There's nothing left to take 

I hope you're satisfied 

Another broken soul for your collection 

Well fuck you 

I won't let you do this again 

I couldn't save me 

But you won't take another soul,

Break another girl 

I'll never stop fighting you,

Until my last breath 

All my love,

A tired soul
