I cry with no tears falling
My eyes are tired and sullen
The skies move swiftly in a blink
The sun sets, it now completely darkens

Blinded by the shadows that surrounds me
I look up but still I neither see nor hear anyone
Running away from nothingness and still air
I breathe heavily wishing that this was all just a dream

I realized I was at the brink of breaking down
But slowly, and surely I see light up ahead
Am I still dreaming? No, I said to myself
It was as if the skies stood still yet again

This time, the light glows with radiance
It fills the emptiness with vibrant colors
I am not alone, I felt happiness once more
I have found my home, I am now… complete

Your play with past and present tense rather throws me back and forth but I like the poem.

The sun sets, it now completely darkens
I understand what you're trying to say here, with the other line but it somehow still doesn't fit. Perhaps revise the word 'it'.
