Darkness…only understands me
People give me one look and say don’t go…she will hurt you!
People get to know me and once they know me and they hear one bad thing about me, they avoid me.
People see my tears…they laugh…
I walk all alone…in this empty road…
Wondering why I'm walking here…alone;
Seeing lots of people who have it worse than me.
I see this sad world…so called world of light...
I think it’s full of people that don’t know me and say all these bad things about me.
Once I put in my iPod, I'm in a whole different world!
I see creatures of the night and they are like me in a way…different.
I understand their pain…
Not being loved…or…
Being loved then after awhile…getting stabbed in the back!
Some people tell me not to go into the darkness…but…
Sometimes the darkness is my only comfort in life.
Darkness…only understands me!
I see a kid getting hurt by older people.
The kid is defenseless…
Getting bruises all over his fragile body.
Once the older people leave…I walk to the child…
I bend down and say…come here…let me take you home!
The kid grabs my hand and I carry him home…
By the time we get to his house…he fell asleep on my shoulder.
I walk up to his door…the door is locked…
I look around for something to climb…
There we go…a ladder…
I climb up to his bedroom…
Lay him in his bed…
Once I'm about to leave…the kid starts to shiver…
I put my jacket on him…he stops and says in his sleep…
Thank you…my guardian angel!
I smile and say you’re welcome!
I left his house…
While walking…I see a grave…an unknown grave…
I walk up to it…then I see a dark spirit.
It said…thanks for helping…my son!
Then it disappears…
I only smile…I know what he meant…
The kid is like me…darkness only understands him…
