sweet darkness

no love lost here
just distant memories
the time capsule has been swallowed
the present has become my past
living it is hard
confusion, anger
getting over it is harder
but i'm not stranger to the rain
i bought my own umbrella
left out in the cold
i stand, shadow hazy
don't cry for me sweet darkness
i have betrayed you
we were supposed to be together
for eternity
held in your cold hands
until i breathed that last breath
i was never supposed to be content
yet here i am
in the midst of all this heartache
with the hint of a smile on my face
gleaming, glowing
i wait for the unknown
in it lies my destiny
so i must let you go sweet darkness
and move on, into the sunlight
to see my shadow once again
