"Pain"

Pain
you tore through my soul
and ravaged my heart
left me lying there
alone, cold, lifeless
numb
loneliness is my anchor
bringing me down
sinking into the depths
where my heart dares not go
happiness is but a dream
something so far away
untouchable
like reaching for the stars
I fall every day
what was once strong is now weak
darkness is calling me
I will never find my way home
take me away from this path
let me feel the love and light once more
I run away from everything
but there is nowhere to go
I keep falling....
Save me from darkness
Save me from myself
