Surrounded by Happiness, In Loneliness

Surrounded by acquaintances
Laughter and bright gleaming whites
Lighted joy
Worry free lives
Daisies dancing on the wind.
Yet a shadow grows
Blocking it all out
There but not
Felt but unseen
Rain running down the windows glass
Unable to move
Unable to advance
Twisting and writhing
Someone save me!
Enveloped in darkness
Slipping away
Laughter without sound
Smiles of misunderstanding
Impassive emotions
Hidden in darkness
A candle lit with fire
One small breeze
And the darkness has won.
