Drowning in silence
is a cliche
one that holds true
again and again
The black clouds
and cold breeze beneath your skin
This darkness
tastes of the salt
within your tears
enough to fill
the great oceans and seas
Lightlessness:
Suppressing
Restraining
drawing you in
stealing the spark from your eyes
If there was any
to begin with,
that is.

Nicole, it is not only the 'lightlessness' that draws one in, it is your whole poem! Unexpected, but perfect ending! I like it a lot!
Thank you very much
