Moonlight shining,

Darkness surrounding,

Lots of power in the night,

Stories told and

Memories mesmerizing

Stories told and

The dice is cast

Lost in the darkness…

Forgotten by the light

Overwhelmed by the

Way things need to be

Overpowered by the darkness

That she feels inside herself

Wishing and praying

For the light to come

Thinking it will

Never breakthrough

Lost in the darkness

That is slowly

Shallowing her soul

Forgotten and broken

Desperate to escape

Drawn to the

Darkness within….
