Alone in the Darkness
By: Devin Cade & Tina Scalici

Alone in the darkness,
No one is home,
Reaching towards the light,
Trapped.......all alone.

In this black hole,
This place that I live,
I pray for the serenity
that only God can give.

In a perpetual state of rest,
Speaking in sound mind,
Wallowing endlessly,
Madness is all I find. 

Each passing day
may be different for some.
But I’ve learned to expect
for no one to come. 

I know nothing but life,
Why do I hold it so clear?
Death is my ignorance
brought on by fear.
