I screamed into the void
The void whispered back
I found comfort in the quiet
I found peace in the black
I let it swallow me
I let it become my home
But even as I was sleeping
I felt so alone
Then one day
Asleep in my cage
I heard a voice
From a boy about my age
And for the first time in years
I opened my eyes
And for the first time in a while
Someone heard my cries
I stepped back out
Into the light
His arm caught me
I had won my fight
Even though the darkness
Seems to be the only way
There’s something sweet
About finding love in the day
