Why is this darkness my only friend,
embracing me in its cold embrace,
What is happening with me,
as I navigate this endless maze?
Why do I wish to slit myself,
to escape this relentless chase,
Why do I wish to never talk,
to hide my tears and fears with grace?
Why do I wish to lock myself away,
in the solace of the night,
Why do I crave the comfort of the shadows,
shielding me from the light?
Why do I want to die,
to end this endless fight,
Why is my heart feeling drained,
as if drained by a silent blight?
Why is my voice stuck deep within,
suffocated by the weight of my despair,
Why is peace nowhere to begin,
lost in the chaos of this affair?
Why am I turning this way,
consumed by a relentless snare,
Why are the demons within me,
so relentless, so unfair?
Why am I screaming,
knowing none would heed my silent plea,
Why do I feel abandoned in my hour of need,
lost in the endless sea?
Why do I search for solace,
yet only find agony,
Why does this pain persist,
a never-ending symphony?
