The Torture of My Mind |

The darkness of the night, overtakes my soul. The creatures seem to lurk about ready any minute to overtake me. So quickly they come, They walk down the halls but when you turn to see whose there you see nothing. If only the lights were on maybe you would not see these shadows that overtake the night. The ever drawing forces that seem to take shape that gather round to have a meeting. To torment your soul in the darkness. The over bearing silence lurks. The darkness is as black as the bottomless pit. It goes on forever and will not end. The loudness of the objects or things that seem to want to envade your hallways. The images that keep popping in your mind. If only daylight would come. I would be able to sleep. Without the monsters that inhabit every room. They once just walked through the halls now they wander everywhere I go. Silent but close by, will this one that is called upon me ever leave me alone. My heart beats so fast I can hardly breath. The darkness seems to wrap me tight in the blankets of blackness. As something seems to be so close I can feel the touch of the fingers of death. They touch me ever lightly in the night. Now my eyes are open and I can see once again. For light has come in the window. Today I have been released once again. Yet tonight comes again. Oh if I could only awake without them here. The insomnia seems even worse as each day goes by more creatures visit me. More meetings they have They want me to join. How long can I refuse. How long? |
