OF A DARK PLACE

by, Matthew T. Borders

When happiness is all gone

And hope can't be found

When you've fallen in a pool of self pitty

And with your last breath you nearly drown

You will finally know the place

That I call home sweet home

It is the place that you sent me

But I moved in and made it my own

And one day like a light

Came freedom from the pain

It was when my mind found numbness

That your haunting soul was slain

But I stayed there in teh blackness

Licking the blood that I had spilt

When I found that guarded chest

Where you hide away your guilt

So maybe I opened up that box

Shouldn't you know how I feel

Woefull cries are my ally

And your happiness is mine to steal

Oh it is a dark, dark casium

That won't go until you've numbed your mind

How do you like the place you created

When you left me behind.

Time

Oh time stands still

Long enough to pass us by

It won't come around until

The new daylight glimmers

A ray of light where hope is found

FInally I will climb out and leave you

Where once I had fallen down
