The Darkness is a powerfull force
it consumes mind, body and spirit
people become who they are not
everything about them changes
As i sit here now
I can feel it's presence
it is calling me
trying to pull me inwards
I know it's terrible secrets
yet i don't fight back
I won't
The more it consumes me
The harder it will be
I even know this
yet here i still am
It's easyer to just let it come
Then it is to fight it
I know this and is the reason why i do nothing to stop it
So here i sit
waiting
patiently
I feel it's icy grip now coming over me
The Darkness is consuming me
This feeling is horrible
unreal
I no longer want it and i fight
but it's no use
I waited to long
and no longer have the strength to go on
It has entirely consumed me now
and this pain is horrible
unbearable
As the last bit of my conscience is about to drift
I call out for help
for someone to help me and save me from what i have become
I see a light
A hand extends towards me and i can feel it's welcoming embrace
I try to reach it
but it's no use
I lift up my hand up towards it but can not reach
For the Darkness that surrounds me is holding me back
I hear a familiar voice
It tells me that everything will be alright and he is hear for me if i want it
I can't recognize this voice
it's been so long
I try again to reach the hand
but the Darkness holds me back
I try again, this time harder than before and i make it farther than before
The Darkness begins to pull even harder
I fight with everything that i have got left just to reach the hand
It feels as if my body is being ripped to pieces
With one last try i fight with everythig that i have
and i grasp onto his hand
He pulls me towards the light
straight through the Darkness
We break free but the light is so bright
That it takes my eyes awhile to adjust
They were used to the Darkness for so long
that the light almost burns them
I see him now
and know him well
He smiles at me when I ask what took so long
He tells me:
I have always been here
watching
waiting
I didnt leave you for a moment
and was the one waiting for you
It pained me so
but all I could do was wait untill you were ready
and wanted my help
You had to be ready to ask for it
He is always there watching over us. When the darkness consumes, we cant expect to just be saved. We have to want it and be able to fight to be free. It's up to us and with his help we can all be set free.

- Description: The Darkness is always trying to pull us in. This Darkness can be just about anything. Drugs, Alcohol, anything. There is always a light as well. It can be anything. Friends, Family or in my case for this poem, God.
