Lights Go Dim

When the lights go dim, you can clearly see
What you have become and what you have ceased to be
The senses become stronger and the demons come close
Your steps become shorter and friends become foes.

You spread your arms to reach an invisible assistance
But you don't even believe in its existence
So how do you even hope for it to help you
But I bet this darkness that that you already knew.

You pacify you weren't prepared
You can't fight the darkness even if you dared
The sounds are clear now that the eyes have no use
And you can hear the cries from your bruise.

The conscious broken and no right or wrong
Even the path to the window now seems too long
Caution must be taken lest you fall in the dark
Because you have to finish the journey you once embarked.

The darkness grows larger and your own shadow is frightening
You pray for a spark but there is no lightning
All you have are your instincts and your mind
In this world of lies, no one helps the blind.

You want to prove that even you can win
When the odds are against you and lines grow thin
You reach the fuse and bring the light back.
And you learn that life is not always white, sometimes its black.
