The darkness envelopes me,
as I trek into the forest alone.
I will take this journey
to find myself
away from you,
away from everyone else.
I will embrace the darkness
for no other will
take me into their arms.
In darkness,
I need no light,
I need no guide.
My light,
my guide,
is myself.
I will cut my own thorns away,
I will help myself up from my falls.
I will find my own way
without you.
