Darkness

Darkness my old friend
 Here we meet once again
 A deeper feeling that lies within
 My human mind wants to fend
 Send You off somewhere far far away
 I lay
 Like molded in clay this idea stays
 Afraid
 And curious I’m once more
 Can it be I just want to score?
 Ignore
 Seems like the more traveled road to take
 But still awake
 At night I wait
 When will this be over?
 Will it?
 Drill it in my head
 Instill it in the back corner of my being
 It will never end
 Can you lend?
 Send
 Me a prayer
 For I’m giving my all
 I stand tall
 I want to fall
 Will you catch?
 If I sore through it once more?
 Oh Lord
 Or whoever is out there
 Listening intently
 Or not
 For this I’m sure
 There is no cure
 Other than
 To make a stand
 I hope you give a helping hand
 Darkness my old friend
Lovingly,
Ian Altosaar
