sitting in the dark
I need a spark
to light my way
somehow, someway
to anywhere
as long as there
is not here
it's here I fear
is here to stay
please take me away
soon, I pray
been down so long
it's where I belong
but I can't just go
my answer's no
the darkness is
my friend not foe
so leave me be
forget about me
I'll be fine
just give me some time
let me rot
decay in my plot
'til nothing's left
hopeless, bereft
that spark will fade
upon my shade
no air to breathe
no need to grieve
please, I beg you
just let me be
