The Covering Darkness

a thankyou to a friend, as i was near the end

Went through things one last time
Waited for darkness to cover me
And simply close my eyes
Let me slowly fade away
Because for far too long
I have felt so alone

Then you reached out to me
As i was waiting to bleed
Your strength shone through to me
The caring that we need
But we still go on
Feeling so alone

Let me be there for you too
Help to take the pain away
Darkness will come back soon
Don't know if you feel the same
But i know that from now on
We don't have to be so alone
