I'm the only warmth and the cold and darkness are eating me away. Once in a while right before I'm completely gone others come and light a fire for me. I don't know how to sustain the fire. Once I'm warm again they leave. Making me lonely yet again. Right before it gets bad again the fire gets lit again. I wish I knew how to light and sustain my own fire to keep me warm and in the light.

It's alright that a poem is sad or dark in tone. It's best to put your heart and soul into artistic work to get through tough feelings.
