Jared

A day in the dark

For a night in the light

It doesn’t seem to be worth it anymore

To spend my life this way

In the light

But mostly in the dark

Constantly wondering

What will happen next

Where the next turn is

How sharp it will be

If you will choose me

If you will love me

Or if you will choose her

And hurt me even more

Loving you without your love

Is like sleeping with your eyes open

It works some

But is not fully satisfying

And what it does fill

It will only fill for a short time

And even then I’m not satisfied

I worry that I never will be

It’s a fear I’m come to live with though

Because it’s a fear I will always have
