Darken the Light

by Stephanie Ng

Dawn upon me
My dark darkness
See my help
To destroy and darken

Take my life
and use it
Get rid of the world
I live in

Change it
Darken it
Let it rain
and let no light shine

Depress those worthless
cowardice people
Strike fear
deep within their hearts

seek and destroy happiness
as it keeps bringing light
Darken those people’s days
Poison their hearts with dread

Make the sky dark
And destroy the sun
For its light
Stand for people’s hope

We stand against that
Make it so no ne can see
The depressing strength we bring about
No stream of light will live

Make it
So that when people turn out that light
that they will never sleep
in fear that you may kill and darken their hopes.
