Sunshine to darkness
How quickly a light can be dimmed
A flame blown out
Or a fire hosed down
Within seconds minutes hours or days
The spark inside someone
Can be obliterated
So that sadness takes over
And haunts the nights and days
Possessing you to do the unimaginable
Just to make sure you're whole body isn't numb
While tears hose down the fire within
Until you drown in your own self hatred
And ensure that there is no possibility
Of a spark ever being kindled again
