The Night Surrounds Me

The Night Surrounds Me

The night surrounds me

I’m split in two

Cold and frosted

My mind sometimes numb

Verses my introvert and intelligent side

I know I’m mad inside

Showing dull calculating eyes

I feel like a demon of the blackest night

Deep down

I would love to feel the burning sun

I might remember what it is to feel human

As I’m caught in a blanket of heavy depression

I’ve lost myself

I need help

One day the light will inevitably shine through

I won’t be the human

I once knew

My demons can live in the blackest dark

I will be in burning sun

My face will resemble a human one

It will not resemble this frosted and numb one

My face will no longer be split in two

My madness is buried deep inside

From my madness

I cannot hide

You will always see it in my bright calculating eyes
