In misery she sits and sighs in darkness with the shades all closed. She counts her problems, stares, and cries in isolation self-imposed. In darkness with the shades all closed, she contemplates a world gone gray in isolation self-imposed, and troubles keep her joy at bay. She contemplates a world gone gray. Anxiety confounds her mind, and troubles keep her joy at bay. She longs to leave the dark behind. Anxiety confounds her mind. She counts her problems, stares, and cries. She longs to leave the dark behind. In misery she sits and sighs.

Ooooo I like this one a lot....You carry out a rhyme about as good as it can be done my friend and the message though dark I can see myself in it and there is hope! The capital H in Him is actually telling here, now I know why my friend made me use it properly hehe
