The darkness

I’ve been wandering through; it has finally come to an end.

As I see the light ahead, how delightful it feels to see something beautiful and real.

To no longer wonder what will happen next

Just happy the peace is here, and the frustration may soon end.

The choice that has been weighing on me is no longer my problem.

That out of sight and my mind, and I will learn to smile again, even if things will be a little tougher.

I would rather fight a new battle than deal with the darkness you always bring around me.

You’re the curse I never have to deal with again, as I’ve broken your spell and now I’m free.
