Tragedy strikes in the depths of the hearts
Of those swallowed by pain
Living lies as their souls fade away
Fearing live and running
They hide from the open arms presented to them
Until they realize they’re now alone
Everyone that cared,
And all that wanted to
Have been driven from them
All because they allowed themselves to be consumed by the darkness
And they’ve blocked their emotions from the outside world

Daily corruption consumes our lives
Day in and day out we allow ourselves to fall apart
We should all take time periodically
And think about what we let corrupt our minds
Think about what we let damage our hearts
And destroys our connections with others
And take every little thing that bothers us
And question it’s true value
Ask your self one question…
Is the tension we allow to consume us…
This emotional corruption that burns our lives…
Is it all worth it?

Every day I fight the darkness
Feeling that the pain may consume me
My sanity appears to be slipping
I may soon loose to the darkness

Often times I wonder-
Why do I continue to breathe?
So why, and how,
Do I manage to proceed?
