Darkness engulfs my sad anchored soul
Pulling down below the surface Drowning under the currents Water floods in my mouth Salt clenching my gums Holes ripping up In my body Promptly Black The sun shines bright among the green ground
Sometimes the clouds cover the sun Darkness spreads across the land Leaving everyone very sad Gray engulfs us all Light never comes Leaving black Always Gloom |
