		"Untitled"

I feel a rage
and an emptiness inside
I struggle in the darkness
to tear me from my bonds

But I do not have the strength
and I cannot fight my will
Though it pulls me towards
the darkness and the light

They cannot hear my screams
or taste the salt within my tears
That falls upon my wounds
and sears the scars upon my heart

I need some freedom and release
but how can I survive
I'm drowning in the desperation
deep within my self
