The darkness surrounds you
Engulfs you
Threatens your very existence
Waiting for you to make that final move
For its final blow
Permanent

They say be strong,
But how can you?
The darkness is a weight put onto your shoulders
Pushing
Shoving
Putting you down.
How can you?

You fight, however.
Fight for the friends in your life,
The family,
The love.
A battle fought by million, billions,
Every day of the world
Everywhere

Some won't win
Some will surrender completely to the darkness
Give in
Embrace it
Love it
But not you
You fight, you battle
And you win.
