Solace

Darkness creeps around my heart
and leaves its scent inside.
Slowly I will crumble down
wither away and die.

I'm staring corners all alone
the throbbing keeps me awake.
Like water washing out a rock
it's driving me insane.

And yet your hands reach out to me,
your warmth dispels the cold,
your whispering voice resounds in me,
your kindness saves my soul.
