Remember

If something else was on, would you forget
If you had to get up early, would you forget
If you had to work late, would you forget
If you had plans to meet your friends would you forget
If you were halfway across the world, would you forget
If you couldn’t actually see me, would you forget
If you had nothing, nothing at all other, Would you forget
I wouldn’t.
Please remember me..

Leon's Homework. That I did for him.

The darkness, it succumbs me, it’s screaming out my name
It’s drawing me towards it, to the centre of the maze
It wraps its arms around me and takes away my pain
All the misery and loneliness that haunts me in the days
The sting of burning daylight, it shows up all the flaws
It shows the failures and mishaps, all the cuts and all the scars
It’s light that, upon us, forces foolish rules and laws
But the darkness brings us freedom, like a lack of walls and bars
The dark is not an enemy, but an escape from being wrong
You see only what’s within you, what is not seen with your eyes
And all that stood before you does no longer seem so strong
You hear only words of truth and are never fooled by lies
The darkness falls upon us with the sunset of each night
It oozes from each crevice and returns each wrong to right.
