The draining of the Day

My soul is drained of all hope and light.
A dark void lurks and keeps me company.
Creeping in the cracks I showed over time,
It is trying to take me over completely.

Darker and grimmer my days become,
Slowly and surely killing the joy I once had.
Sadness, pain, my mind has reached its limit,
The constant chatter and noise drives me mad.

I’ve shown my weakness to it, it knows where to hurt,
He has shown me the way out, I know where to go.
The way is clear and my intentions are justified.
Now It’s only, when and how will I preform my last show.

Author's Note
Day after day I have to battle the thoughts in my head. They keep pushing me to a path I swore never to take. That path that becomes more and more tempting as the days become darker and their voices become louder.
