To a(ny) friend in the dark:

Are you sad when you smile?
Does your stomach turn in the lonely dark
Of your own making?
Surrounded by the walls built with
The distance you've made but not chosen 

It's okay, I know it's not all you
It's just the darkness in your mind 
That fills your heart sometimes and 
Holds you down sometimes
I know it feels like all the time.

Breathe, you don't have to give in
I'll hold on if you do so too
I'll search for light if you do so too.
