When Darkness Falls

By ToxicLove

darkness falls all around her as she searches for her heart
weaving through the twisted places ripping her apart

fallen tears now lost to her
through bloodshot eyes her life is just a blur

nothing lasts, nothing is forever, nothing stands still
but nothing seems to steal from her a reason to feel

when nothing doesn't matter
when nothing is left of her to shatter

into a corner she will hide
because her heart and love collide

she locks the vault that protects her existence
falling in love no longer makes sense
