When all is dark
How can you whisper, “hope?”
Say my name, loud and clear
If anyone’s out there, let me hear
Go back to when you loved me
And I will go back to when I cared
I will pretend that you’re still here
If you promise to remember the times we shared
Maybe I look old to you, now crinkled and gray
Or maybe there’s no reason, why your logic began to stray
I thought that the longer together
Only meant the stronger, forever.
But even my mom knows I’m a fool
For I fell in love with someone like you
When all is dark
There is no candle burning with passion
There is not even warmth from the comfort of your hand
The mirror reflects with only one reflection
And without you in reach, I stumble just to stand
Below my eyes grow puffy, and above a dull gray
For only just a month ago, you’d never have thought of treating me this way
This time around you refuse to hold me, and look me in the eyes
Because this time around you’re only a boy, whose afraid to watch as a part of me dies.
When all is dark
Hear me scream.
