Alone in the Darkness

†††
I am screaming but no one can hear me,
It is a deafening painful cry,
In the darkness I sit and I rock,
And no one even wants to know why...

There was a time when my life knew the laughter,
But it seems to be so far gone,
All because of your smiles etched deep,
That caused everything to go wrong...

There must have been love in my heart or my soul,
Somewhere beneath all the fear and pain,
The cuts on my arms a portrayal,
That has left me feeling insane...

Nothing now seems to matter at all,
There is no one that answers the cries,
Darkness brings demons and spirits,
This is all because of your lies...

A Gothic romance that began with your touch,
Your kiss pulled me into your web,
Trapped by the pleasures of lust of the flesh,
Now you are gone and I wish I was dead...

To be left with the cuts and the scars so deep,
And while I know you will never come back,
I warn you to flee from the spirits,
And the girls dressed in Gothic black...

It is the mystery that invites the attraction,
But the emotional pain takes it toll,
Their heart filled with something unknown,
Until they find their way into your soul...

Once inside they will own you,
And control your every desire,
And make you fall deep in love,
And then throw you back into the fire...

I can't handle not having you with me,
The pain cuts me deep into night,
My arms have been made into canvas,
The brush a sharp razor or knife...

Agony whispers to me in the nightmares,
And there simply is no way to sleep,
I feel it run down my arm so wet,
As my bloods drips red on the sheets...

Majestic in all of the memories,.
I think of you and the places you dwell,
I hope I live in your memory,
Because now I am living in hell....

We would walk through the graveyard in darkness,
Where with me their names you read,
Chanting the words on the headstone,
Grieving you wished you were dead....

But now in the darkness alone I will walk,
And take every step filled with fear,
Knowing that these were your friends,
Watching you weep and in tears...

So filled with despair and inflicted with pain,
Becomes more frightening and close to the end,
I hope that my headstone will read,
Here I lay with my only few friends...
†††
Because no one else cared...
