Darkness upon

The pathway to peace seems to be infinite,

The demons within and you are desperate,

In a room full of people you feel all alone,

Your mind is the only place you can call home.

You’re constantly struggling, thinking, and observing,

Your health is perfect but your body’s still hurting,

Your heart is aching; your body is shaking,

The demon’s been resting but now it is waking,

It won’t leave you alone, even though you are begging,

You are begging, you are begging, you are breaking,

Down.

 There’s nothing straightforward here,

There’s no use in pretending,

Dark times need bright thoughts,

Even when you think it’s all ending.
