Sheer existence

I try to fall
That's when I rise
I try to scream
My throat gets dry

I try, I want to be happy
Even if it's for a moment lasting shorter than the size of a seed.
But that's when it happens
The sun sets and within the blink of an eye , the night falls
Engulfing my soul in it's sheer darkness

I wanted to look at you
But that's when the clouds thickened around
As an over-possesive creature, it formed rain
Erasing your existense and leaving me with nothing but my shadow
