Alone in the Dark
by
D. A. Williams
Alone in the dark
I sigh in deep reflection
The way I live my life
My only form of protection
People can't stab me in the back
If I never turn it away
Can't misconstrue my words
If I have nothing to say
They cannot break my heart
If I never let them in
And cannot take my pride
If I never let them win
They won't understand my anger
If they've never felt the rain
Or comprehend my feelings
If they never felt the pain
Or why I keep on swinging
Even after the fight
Because alone in the dark
I can still see the light.
