this one is for kethry...cuz my last one wasn't scary enough for her  

~Shadows in the night~

they haunt me like lost memories,
causing me such fright.
why can't they just let me be,
these shadows in the night.

walking across the room
and over to the bed,
tall and thin, and powerful,
hate this image in my head.

he sits down
and pulls her up
tells her she must
keep it shut.

she cries inside
he breaks her innocense
she dies inside
inhumane violence

she can never tell
all pain stays
feeling not so well
like always

she cries her self to sleep
and locks the door tight
he always has the key
he comes in every night

these dark shadows
come to taunt
living all alone
do haunt

hate these shadows
that come to me
innocense frozen
hate is raping me

Very well done! Very frightening images and I can only imagine the impetus for putting them to paper.

Your pain is for you alone, As it is, As it was, As it will be forever, Amen

Ok Nik, that was scary enough for me,
too many images, I can realte to there
Not the least possession, no control and deep despair.
Thanks for dedicating this to me. I'm flattered...I think!  
Be well

"It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures;
but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-
