The pain that takes over
A break in my breath
Feeling so much
Shattering my soul
Screaming through the pain
No one hears me
My tears are silent
My heart is weak
My emotions are raw
You’re just a whisper on my lips
And a knife in my heart

The warmth in your soul
The kindness in your words
The love within you
It wraps around me
It runs through me
Flowing into every fiber of my senses
Freeing me from my own pain
Helping me to feel again

So closed off
Protected by my own walls
Keeping out the dark
Protecting myself from the light
You tried to get in
I tried to keep you out
Your warmth started radiating through me
Yet all I could feel is the cold
Trying hard to protect myself
Wanting to keep you safe
You won’t let me stay in the dark
Please don’t leave me alone in the dark
