Living in Darkness

Living in Darkness

The day before I returned

I wanted to snap out of it,

I wanted to fight it.

I wanted to be able to pull through.

I hoped and hoped that I would wake up,

and everything over the past month would have been an awful nightmare.

But deep down, I knew this was the realty. 

I had to leave and get of this dark place.

I realized all of this the day before.

The day before I accepted the truth,

my world came crashing down around me.

All of my dreams, hopes, strength-

gone. Poof.

I never knew how much darkness I was living in until

the day before.
