Darkness Poem by Barbara Barb

You think you know me,
But do you really?
Do you see the tears in my eyes?
The pain that lies there from the past?
Do you even care?
I have darkness inside of me
I feel like i am dead inside.
But you know me right
Can you feel what i feel?
Can you see the darkness?
Is there light out there?
My pain is hard to get rid of
Hard to leave behind it is my baggage.
My burden to carry.
You say you can change, you do this to yourself.
Well that is where you are wrong..
My past will forever haunt me.
I cant run, i cant hide.
It will always find me
I will always be stuck in the darkness.
