My world's lights are dim, sing another hymn,
I can feel the dark, like a savage shark.
I can't resist the call, may have to crawl,
This dark is for me, I'll never have glee.

Darkness is my new light, it I'll not fight,
Misery I know, is love's dispatched glow.
Love will never leave, I'll sit here and grieve,
I know I'm no saint, without her I feel faint.

I'll not stop and pause, lonely is my cause,
Nothing keeps me here, nothing I endear.
I seem to be drawn, my life's blood's been pawned,
Go or not I say, I don't want to stay.

The dark, my cup of tea, besides it is free,
All it cost is my soul, in that dark hole.
My world is no more, without her like before,
Memories are hard, I feel like I'm charred.

So! Please let me go, to my final woe,
That's where I should be, with the backdoor key.
I'll go to the dark side, and my dark bride,
Oh, my gloom and I, will now say goodbye.

Welcome to PIP you'll enjoy your time here.
This is a sad poem of lost love.
I like how you get the feelings across, well done!
