somebody's dungeon

Moon beams quiver,
and shadows slither..
my dreams are hellish
        at best.

Sleep of peace..
     for others at rest.

While I fight the demons
       of past...

You'll not let them
       breathe their last.

Time drips in the absence
        void of all light,
what happened before
        won't die in the night,
when fed with the fury
        you feed the dark flame,
I'm lost...incinerated
        destroyed by the blame.

Oh so true Rose....sometimes no matter how much we wish for things to fade, they dont. But I have always found that sooner or later the sun does shine.  May your days be bright!

Anne,

I understand...and really enjoyed the way you wrote it.

fascinating use of language, this unfolds magnificently

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

The burden of blame burns out of control for sure!  

This is stark and painfully honest
...excellent poem good poetess.

really enjoyed the "feel" you conveyed in your words, and the words themselves were wonderful.
