Days end draws near Night time beckons Bitter tasting fear Rises inside again Darkness now falls Locked inside Four white walls Need room to breathe Freedom from the past Peaceful sleep Thats all I ask Demons haunt me still Voices call my name Awake, eyes closed Still its the same Hours pass, dawn comes Stumble through day Sleep tonight That's all I pray Body numb, mind hazy Suns setting again Tossing, turning Will this cycle ever end Still voices come And I lie awake....listening. With a little piece of tomorrow, You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye. Because today won't last forever, And the past will only make you cry. |

hmmm...you have been in a down mood lately..hope everything is ok..but, I must admit, I write best when things are not going well too..this is a very good piece.. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

...and speaking of down moods... I can really relate to this.. being in a down mood myself. It amazes me how many of us are having the same feelings about things in our lives, and the many differnt ways we express it... this poem was lovely. -shira |

I personally do not suffer with "demons" that keep me awake... but I know people who do, and you have described what I have been told to a T... very moving, almost "haunting". Nice. I liked it. |

oh, yes--haunted nights that slowly wind into day. You well captured the feeling. "Come...dance with me, in my world of words." |
