Overcome By My Darkness

By Sarah Hill

Age 14

Warm Smile,

Cold Heart,

Warm Skin,

I'm Empty and hollow within.

The darkness swiftly takes hold of my soul.

The light fades away.

Gone form thy heart, once filled with passion and love.

Black and blue from the outside world,

It's relentless pain bottled inside.

Left behind with no choice.

Can't turn back but I'm forced to stay here.

Alone, without, missing,

Never to hear another heart beat.

Alone in this unfair world,

A world full of things unseen,

Alone I will face it.

I alone will stand strong.

Alone, I will come out on top.
