The darkness never scared me, I welcomed its embrace and it felt like home,
A place to hide in the shadows, somewhere I could belong and I wasn’t so alone,
My stitches have come undone, my wounds are frayed at the seams,
Washed away, I’m drowning, lost in a sea of my shattered dreams,
I was once alive, but damaged inside I never knew how to live,
My soul was broken, born tainted, yet I had so much to give,
I hear my name whispered softly, a gentle caress upon the breeze,
Like leaves rustling in the wind, untethered, it sets me free,
A calling for me to answer, a beacon, a light to guide my way,
Reflecting, I close my eyes, I’ve reached my final day,
Stepping forward, I am the condemned,
I have reached my journey’s end…
