Today I crash into the downward spiral,
From the rest of the world I fall behind
My motives shall remain forever hidden,
Closely guarded in the back of my mind
Numerous uphill skirmishes drain me,
I fall bonelessly to the chilled ground
Silence encompasses the atmosphere,
Reigning as the loudest of harsh sounds
Promises were all I've ever been given,
Each one masked a cold, bitter lie....
All were jagged daggers flung to the soul
Slowly causing me to wither away and die
This very day the sun refuses to shine,
Only eternal darkness and heavy strife
Spread quickly like a black shroud above me,
Posing threats of destruction to my life
Relinquishing the remainder of my powers
I fade into the many dark shadows of day
While tempestuous waves pull me ever under
Until spirit and willpower are stripped away.
