darkness

By Acerbated •
they say that once you see the darkness
theres no going back
no fighting it
that it will take over
well i see the darkness
but i will fight it
i will vanquish it
swelling from the corners of my vision
i shall not let it take me
not now, not ever
i shall triumph
and nothing will stop me
but i hear the laughter again
the taunts, the ridicule
i feel the prodding again
the shoves, the kicks
i feel the shame
but i wont let the darkness take me
i wont
i just cant
