Literature Text

Save me from this darkness;
This black and endless night.
Every day since you departed,
At any moment, there's no light.

I walk into the downpour,
Let the rain cleanse my soul;
Warmed by solipsism outdoors,
Impervious to the winter's cold.

These raindrops freeze to my skin,
Encasing my body; I've ceased.
These chains hold my heart within;
I've no desire to be released.

The elements never stood a chance,
When we first touched to embrace.
No tremulous as I ask for this dance,
These feelings cannot be erased.

I'm armed with something stronger-
Than you've ever in your life known.
So please don't wait any longer..
Open your eyes, and come home.

"Every day since you departed,
At any moment, there's no light." Probably my favorite lines in the poem. Beautiful, but sad.
