Breaking me

Deep in the darkness of my soul A darkness not even I can behold Somewhere far beneath my eyes A spec of light you can barely see lies You reached out to it but to your greatest surprise The light within is moved farther despite your tries Nothing can save me from myself you thought But even at that, with persistence you sought Digging through my clusters of damage Clusters I think not to manage Risking the many things we that we share The very thoughts of losing a friend, you seemed not to fear You dug for my own good "rescue the light before it's long gone" "For if the light leaves, this can't be undone" Worried not by the outcome Giving it your all "still I'll overcome" Getting closer to the end of the darkness's frontiers Darkness cannot help but give up "I'll surrender the light" it volunteers Finally the search and pursue mission is over In a cage the light is handed over Retrieved the little light in me Brought out the light and set it free "The light is out" darkness begins to cry "For when light is out how shall we pass by?" Wiping all the darkness my light broke out "Finally he is broken" you begin to shout The old me is gone now, no turning back My insides no longer painted in black Darkness is gone, locked away in a cage So now I can finally turn a new page
