Sorrow bleeds me dry and leaves me breathless
My anguish confines me to these four walls
Where darkness has cast a nocturnal spell
Keeping me in its tightly held grasp
It baits me
Daring me to attempt departure
I have no plans to remain it’s prisoner
I break free of its hold
I breath deeply squeezing out a sigh
Finally
Freedom is completely mine
Sun bears down hard against my skin
The darkness spell has been lifted
When Darkness Falls Upon Me©
