My Darkness

By swf27texas

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Do you understand my darkness? Do you even see my tears? If I could take you to my darkness, You would understand my fears. Looking into this flame Feeling one hundred mile away I can feel the fire Getting hotter every day. The flames rush up into my soul When I feel your body near. They burn a hole full of darkness and fill me up with fear. I try to keep the flame real near In case I need some light. Then I can cover the flame with my soul, When you see too much I can make it night. Lower the flame It's getting so bright that you can see. Bring me my darkness you won't see through me.
