Night after night I stare at the sky <br />Alive but I wish I could die <br />There is a deep silence in the darkness <br />And I stand here contemplating this great dimness <br />Telling my tragedy <br />And every tale about me <br />I listen to the overwhelming sound of my heart <br />Smothering me and tearing me apart <br />I gaze at the gleaming stars <br />And think about my inane dull scars <br />A strike of agony made me yell as pain was so supreme <br />It was bigger than I could deem <br />Sooner sun will shine <br />And I’ll lose every sign <br />Of existence <br />And persistence <br />I want the dark to cover the day <br />Because brightness leads me astray <br />I weep to myself <br />Cos feeling doesn’t exist upon me <br />Beneath the stains of time <br />The feelings just disappear<br /><br />Darkness Herself<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/beneath-the-stains-of-time-2/
