This sensation I feel is nothing new for me,
The darkness surrounding my heart is here to stay
Slowly I wander the depths, no purpose to be
My path, swallowed in shadow, eats my soul away
Each new day dawns only to bring nothing
Where are all the people that I used to know?
Pain in my head throbs to block the screaming
Years of this torture and with nothing to show
The emptiness consumes me, creating another
Enemies say I’ll suffer once I’ve reached hell
My suffering is my life, so I look no further
Sorrow and grief have no place within my shell
Happiness not even a memory, the void only to remain
Like shroud, I block the light till there’s only despair
I mock the agonies of others simply to lessen my pain
Even as evil as I may seem to be, I am really unaware
Humility and compassion do not cause me to ache
The nothingness sticks to the back of my throat
Everywhere I turn anguish finds me till I break
I need an escape, so I look back to what I wrote.
