Light to Dark

Light to Dark

Why did it happen?
Why couldn’t I stop it?
The light began to fade.
Everything turned gray.
I lost my way today.

It all seemed to just fall apart.
From the good to bad to ugly so fast.
Did I even get to blink?
How do I find my way back?
I can’t see in the dark.
It isn’t like the gray where I can make my way.
It is too dark now to know which way to go.
Is this the right way?
Or is that the right way?

I no longer know where the road leads.
I no longer care to see what is over the next hill.
I no longer wish to be at the top.
I no longer wish.

I just want to get out of the dark.
I am afraid of the dark.
I am afraid of what I can’t see.
I am afraid of what I don’t know.

It doesn’t matter though.
I am here in the dark.
No light to be found.
Not even a trace of gray.

From light to dark.
Too quick to stop it.
From light to dark.
I am afraid of the dark.
