Hello Darkness

As they sat silently, she waited. Knowing it was just a matter of time. Already she felt the sadness inside. She had felt it for a while now. Only she tried to avoid what was coming. She had known better then to try. Yet, his words had made her world bright. She even thought she had found perfection. Perhaps to many times she had hesitated. Still he tried to take all the blame. As he slowly whispered those treaded words. She simply smiled.. Then said, I understand. While inside her heart was being broken. Ah but you see, no one must know her. Not the real her, for then they would see. Therefore, she smiles and laughs a pretender. Never feeling the pain or so, it seems. Even as he whispered "Its my fault. She knew where the fault lay again. Yet it was nice of him to try wasn't it. As he walked away, she whispered "Friends". With a sigh she smiled once more. Ancient wounds that never heal it seems. For they stand between her and love. The path she walks is tedious at times. With many twists and turns along it. The light grows dim as the sun fades. In the darkness, she feels the safety. When at last she can let the tears flow. Glancing toward the stars she whispers, I knew all along you know. Only the truth is hard to except at times. One star shines brightly high above. Like a diamond set on black velvet. Reflections of it shimmer off her tears. Slowly she turns on the music. Bowing her head, she starts the song. Knowing the words will comfort her. Hello darkness my old friend. A song she knew by heart now, Ive come to see you once again Gently she shuts the door once more..
