Damn Darkness

Authored by Stephanie Daich

Damn Darkness

​I run from you
I hide from you
I cannot escape you
You are my companion
You never leave
I try to drown you out
You are louder than the distraction
You refuse to let me be
When joy surmounts
You chase it away
When things are colorful
You make them gray
Is this my forever
Are we sealed for eternity
I haven’t earned you
Yet you are my prize
Can’t you let me be
Can’t you set me free
Damn darkness
You have stolen my life
