Reminiscence,

Going back,

Every thought, word, idea,

Soaked in darkness and pain.

Grief, sorrow, loss and despair,

It surrounds the soul,

Trapping it,  weighing it down.

Like the misty December fog,

Blinding it and changing it's path.

Underneath the echoes,

Buried in the shadows,

Darkness lurks within,

Merciless to its victims.

But they know,

Those who have the darkness within,

They know how cruel it is,

How deep it's wounds go,

And how hard it is to let go.

They know how,

Suffocating and overpowering it can be.

Can you feel it?

It's  inside you.

The Darkness,

It's in all of us.
