"Trying to Break Free"
That darkness
 Weighting against
 my soul
 has in one way been let go 
 or at least trying to 
 Not only for them
 But for me too
 My bleeding desire 
 Is fading 
 Yet growing 
 Fading for I know 
 I am beautiful 
 Inside and out 
 Glowing with a light
 To break free 
 From my darkness 
 But growing,
 Growing with the
 Lies, hurt, sorrow, pain
 Anger, loss of trust
 The brokenness of my heart 
 And my shattered soul
 Trying to fix this mess
 Slowly, not knowing 
 Where to start 
 No trust
 Losing them all
 Left alone 
 Or is it I who isolates myself?
 Hiding all of my 
 Darkness 
 But it slowly creeps out
 Bleeding onto everything 
 Else surrounding me 
 Where is my glow
 Smile, joy trust? 
 Gone into eternity? 
 My heart in the hands of others 
 Fighting for it
 I want it back
 To stop spiraling 
 Out of control 
 Into my own 
 Selfish darkness 
 Fighting a battle 
 Within myself 
 Seemingly alone
 Forever
 But I know
 I know He is there
 Trying to tear 
 The darkness away
