Black

I walk this road alone.

In the middle of the night.

In the depth of the cold, my thoughts speak out in agony. 

Singing in fear of what the sun may bring. 

For i can not wake to a new day in this misery.

My life has always been a blank canvas.

And every day paints on a new coat. 

Every action covers a new color.

My mind is masked. 

My heart is black. 

My feet are cold. 

The base of my heart sinks into the abyss. 

With every word and every last kiss. 

This is what I have lived for.

Every day running towards my tree.

But never growing any closer.

I can see the bright glow. 

But i am separated by this shield. 

I fear that i may never reach the end. 

I fear that i may never see the warmth or feel the light. 

Moving closer towards the tree of life.

All the while i am fading into nowhere,

and falling into the night.
