“Light shines brightest in the deepest dark!”<br /> -Jim Butcher


Memories are weight

Too much for my tongue to bear

Have to stay silent

 

Tongue can't lift the words

Too much pressure, can't escape

Forcing out a sound

 

But no one listens

As I'm spilling out my pain

Weight grows heavier

 

Weight pushes me down

I get up again and the

Weight pushes me down

 

I need to give up

Not fight this any longer

Time to learn to live

 

But the world is dark

The flame of joy: extinguished

And now I'm alone
