Our Darkest Memory Poem by William King Jr.

The night lasts forevermore as the sun drifts away
Darkness grows by the second as the night takes over the day
Cold once again rules supreme as heat slowly dies
Evil lurks all around as the hope for good dies
Dreams turn into nightmares as ghastly visions grow
Hearts turn stone cold as hatred for life begins to show
Now more than ever is my need for you
In my darkest days your light helped me see through
When dreaded thoughts began to flood my very feeble brain
The talks we had would always make my mind become sain
And in the hours when my pain went beyond and above
I knew that when you held me close you healed me with your love
As the weather turned bad and calm turned to storm
I kept you safe, warm and secure forever in my arms
And when the perils of living made you give in into the night
I swore that now and forevermore I will always remember our life
