Welcome sweet darkness...
Your guilty smile greeted me,
I knew no good could come of this,
The taunting, the bruises,
The lies, the deception,
Slowly bringing me down,
To your level.
I tried to run,
This just wasn't me,
Pressure I'd never felt before,
Bearing down on me,
You can't change the way I am,
But you can wear me down.
Telling myself what you say isn't true,
Hiding from you and your desciples on my own,
Loneliness a close friend,
Those haunting laughs,
Only bring my pain,
Closer to the surface.
Your always in my head,
I'm forever looking over my shoulder,
This is becoming to much,
"Make it stop!" I shout,
Even though I know it won't end.
I search for someone to talk to,
To let it all out,
Nobody will answer,
I pretend it's not getting to me,
But I know deep down,
I can't control my feelings anymore.
Bleeding on my bathroom floor,
This is what I've become,
There will be no more pain soon,
You can't bully me anymore,
But as you read this I know,
You'll feel no remorse,
Because I gave up,
I let you win,
This is my last chapter...
Welcome sweet darkness

and such a genuine feel, maybe because the characters seem so specific but the situation, though specific seeming, is left a little bit open. i'm not exceptionally fond of the last line, but if this was for venting, it was done the way it needed to be. struck a note in me today. keep on. [:

I do agree the situation is left open and thus is so many can relate to it, thank you both for your comments :)

i relate to these lines, on such a personal level, this darkness and pain, was once an everyday existence for me, and there was a point, where giving up seemed the only way....this tugged at the darkness tucked away..buried deep. im glad its more of an afterthought for me now. but this brings back the memory of it.
