A page from the journal... Of an Insomniac Gone Mad... 4:54am... a sweep of darkness covered me this morning chilling the room cooling the embers that slowly burn within the soul touching a place I've closed off to myself to everyone who claims they know or understand they couldn't it's madness complete and unforgiving control or lack of that drives this force flames flicker and I fan them giving until the last breath dies and still it cools and still it fades the white ash disappearing falling out of my grasp where is the peace now how could it be so lost when it was held so close guarded loved and nurtured don't try to make sense of me or see if you can erase the shadows they belong to me like the madness my strength weakens nothing fades nothing erases all..... of me Snow 4-26-00 |
