I sit in darkness With silence around me This quietness that seems to never end Sitting alone with no friends My thoughts fluttering in my head This bleak quit that scares my thoughts My memories flying forward Unneeded assistance to what I see and feel A dark space for new thoughts Things I can write But dare not speak Memory of truth I have Words of falseness others speak How to find the truth within the many lies Why must my mind be so dark? Can there be nothing of light Will the memories I write always be with endless darkness Frightened to quit Silenced Spoken memories always wrong Who is right who is not? Me or you
