Black like my soul.

A rose dies. The life extinguished for whom none cry.
A smile, a laugh, all forgotten and lost within the dark.
Dark and black.
Black like my soul.
Unbearable tears refuse to fall; known only to They.
They who hurt. They who are pain. They who are dark.
Dark and black.
Black like my soul.
A love when lost drains hope and warmth.
Purpose dies upon the lost hopes; dreams fade into the dark.
Dark and black.
Black like my soul.
The day begins, begins and fades. Lost purpose and meaning unknown and unloved.
Worthless effort strewn across the wasteland of a life full of dark.
Dark and black.
Black like my soul.
I raise the knife to end the pain; the pain about which none care.
I am my own. Lost and alone. Alone in the dark.
Dark and black.
Black like my soul.
Tomorrow will come. Tomorrow and more. Meaningless, hopeless, inevitable life.
We take our steps and then look back. Back to the past. Back to the dark.
Dark and black.
Black like my soul.
The loss is a drop, a drop into an unbearable ocean.
An ocean of pain traversed by schooners of despair in the dark.
Dark and black.
Black like my soul.
I cry. I empty myself of all that I am. Feelings lost on a void.
Hope gone I am alone and nothing in the dark
Dark and black.
Black like my soul.
