Darkness Falls

Sitting in the dark...

Draped in silence 

Coping with my thoughts

And how they reminisce 

Over you...

Tomorrow isn't to far away

So I kneel to pray

Just to insert optimism 

For another day

I've fought for as long as I may

Denied the truth

Even when staring in my face

So weak am I

That the illusion gave me strength 

For you I've stood

While the world laughed

As I fell

In the absence of others

I've located a truth

Destiny filled out my ledger 

As the echo peacefully fades
