Losing the Light.

From the depths of despair
I now longingly stare.

Nonsensical words block my view,
to understand I battle through.

Torrential torment tumbles down,
I try to smile and hide the frown.

For a while you shone diamond bright,
you drew me to your awesome sight.

I miss the glow of your bright light,
replaced now with the darkest night .

Why did my light choose to recede?
My hopes and dreams it now impedes.

I'd dared to ponder life anew,
now engulfed by blackest hue.

At last I'd looked out from inside,
just this one time I didn't hide.

I bared my heart and also my soul,
I thought at last I'd become whole.

Was this once again so wrong?
Will this be my final swan song?

Unsure of my path once again,
lost on a road that's closing in.

It's time to be brave, to fly free,
start to love the person that's me.
