I live in darkness within my mind
For my soul was taken long ago,
Happiness is something I'll never find
For my grief I can never let go.
but your poem tells me there is still hope
On this we both agree,
So through all the grief I will still cope
Until I am set free.
So thank you very much
Your poem means a lot to me,
For something deep within me was touched
And relived my misery.

Written in response to a poem I read on an old poetry site "poetry.com"
The poem was named "Night"
