Analysis of all alone in the dark

michael steven lewis 1984 (mississippi)



All alone in the dark, no one by my side, no where to run, and no need to hide. All alone all alone all alone. What did I do, why is this happening to me? Why am I so alone. Why do I never feel free. Feeling so trapped, and no one to see. Because I’m all alone in the dark, without a light and no way to see.

I can run and hide, it never seems to help, because there’s no one around, and I’m just hiding from myself. I feel like a monsters deep within me, holding me down, so i can’t see. I can’t find my way out. And it’s all because of me, I’m all alone in the dark, and unable to see.

It’s all in my mind, it’s all just a dream, I’m all alone in the dark, and I never feel free. I need to let go, I need to be free, It’s time to take a deep breath and set my self free.

I am in control, I do hold the key, to get out of the dark, I just need to set myself free. It’s all in my mind, it’s all because of me, I’ll never be in the dark, if I let myself be free.
