State Of The Dark Poem by john mylius

If I could......I would
Make you understand what I mean
But the words...Get lost somehow
And we end up in the same old scene
How can I...Communicate
What I'm feeling so deep inside..
When you turn-and walk away-
Baby I just want to run and hide

It's not that you don't understand
because Babe I know you're trying some how
These days you try and make your very own stand.....
But I can't back down now

That's the State of the Dark...
Baby we just cant turn on that light
That's the State of the Dark
How do we make it....Through the night?

That's the State-that we're in
Our love is flickering like a candle in the wind
But before -this fire burns out
I hope we find out what it's all about

I know we've got -our differences
we've seen it over and over through the years
But there are times -when we're at out best
We never even stop and worry about the rest-
But there's times that we turn around
And wonder is it really all in vain
This thing I don't want to live without-
I know we'll try again

That's the State of the Dark
Baby we just can't turn on that light
That's the State of the Dark -
How do we make it -Through the night?
That's the State of the Dark
