My frist poem

Hello all,I have been writing poetry for a few months as part of my therapy and I would like to share my frist poem. It is about how negative my life an seem to be. I hope you enjoy

Darkness

A darkness surrounds me

Like a blanket it smothers

No stars or moon

Complete and inky

This forever night

That eclipses all of me

How I long for the light,rays of freedom to shine upon my face

And for the shade that holds me in place

To fade without a trace

How i dream of the day when my soul is free to take flight

mind to wonder with thoughts of delight

And emotions unshackled form the shadows of doubt

Will forever shell I be swallowed by this darkness? Or shell one day i be free
