The darkness begins to fall all around, making my soul totally empty. My eyes water and the tears drop down; this is me when I feel lonely. I often wish to let go of the rope, to end the pain in this life of mine. I try to reach out but can't grasp hope, so I can deal with problems I find. I take a long look in the mirror, and I hate the picture staring at me. I think if only there was a protector, then she could open my eyes to see. I don't really want to end my life; I just dream of having a new one. How and where do I start this strife, when all I can think to do is run? Copyright 1997 by Bobbie J. Brown
