“Oh darkness, my friend,
Oh darkness, you see;
Why can’t I transcend,
The darkness in me.”
“Oh my child, you fool,
Oh my child, you see;
I don’t mean to be cruel,
But what’s of that you speak?”
“Oh darkness, so strong,
Oh darkness, I plea;
This has gone for so long,
It’s time I’m set free.”
“Oh my child, calm down,
Oh my child, so meek;
Your mind is my playground,
Your tears are my beach.”
“I am ready for growth,
For my power’s divine;
I take back all control,
That you’ve had on my mind.”
“You don’t have to do this child?
Don’t leave me like this;
I swear that I’m not defiled,
Please close the abyss.”
“My head is so clear now,
Appreciation, anew;
So this is my farewell,
And I bid you adieu.”
“I’ll wait for the next time,
that you might need me again;
I am darkness — I’m always trying,
To pretend as your friend.”

A conversation between darkness (depression/sadness/anger/jealousy) and someone trying to break free.
