A dark room



A dark room is all i see when I'm alone
Talking with my ghosts, all bright outlooks are gone
A dim view of nothingness is all i see when I'm alone
Silence ringing in my head, all other voices are gone
An unlighted void is all i see when I'm alone

It's so peaceful here when I'm alone
There's no hope and all expectations are gone
There's no pain when I'm alone
Just an isolated bliss when everyone is gone

I am alone in this dark room
It can be scary sometimes
Sometimes it can be soothing
Just if u know, what life you're in
 
A dark room, yes,
A void you cannot avoid




 

About this poem
