Dark Nature

When I realized that these eyes have seen much suffering 

Living but empty 

I guess this is what death feels like 

When my soul weeps outside me 

Outside the core that is me 

I’ve loved and lost 

Seems as if death follows me riding a white horse with red eyes 

Eyes that lit a fire at one time 

Now I sit here alone 

Waiting on my time 

  

To either die or shine
