I Am Not Afraid

I’m not afraid anymore. My soul has gone through the darkest place my twisted mind had made, I am not afraid.
In the depths of my despair, I learned something. Life just isn’t fair. I knew this before, but the prospect made my spirit soar. No matter what I do or say, the night won’t change to day.
My sight was clouded, but now I see. There’s a lighter place inside of me.
I have discovered peace with what I’ve chose to do. But I have to wonder, was I ever in charge?
The world seems so large, was I ever the decider of my life, or is something else bringing me unwarranted strife?
Maybe this life was meant to be, but I also think it was supposed to end before its time.
I’ll tell some of my story in rhyme because it’s how I express myself best.
Lest you say I’ve going on to long already, I’ll say right now I think you’re wrong.
We all have a song within our souls, a melody of impossible beauty.
Mine starts out upbeat and happy, but then it slowly begins to fall
Into darkness, a hollow place,
I couldn’t tell you this face to face.
I love you all, but I’m not afraid. So now that I have laid down to rest, I wish you the best
In your pain and sorrow, know that this is true,
I never wanted to hurt you.
