I feel the cold gaze of unknown bearing some crude occult mark sending chills within my spine and bone I'm scared easily frightened because your claws itch for scratch and your oozing bloodthirsty mind is enlightened by the scent of a potential catch screaming agony beckons my paralyzed soul cries out this intense pounding never seems to lessen overcome by false hope and plagues of doubt I in irony retreat to darkness thinking that by coming I'm running that I'll taunt your phony "Goddess" that I'll stare you in the face and die laughing laughing because I'm flirting with death And I'm choked for words to repent crashed and wrung out I'm on my last breath my courage is worn away and bent all at the same moment you pounce but it's too late somehow chance made me bounce and I was rescued by fate I wish this is how it ends but it doesn't the same story happens over and over again I'm caught in a re-run and I'm falling every time it's not a joke this isn't fun it's all for real and I'm less than fine someone tell me how to fix this I'm scared I keep dying I'm tired of all that takes place and of the pain that exists sleep my precious slumber |

My advice? Keep the light on and check under the bed eveyr night before you go to bed. Good write. Hollow. "Why are my visions so unliving with dreams? And why do I no longer care?" - Stygian |

that's kool Wayne, thanx for replying...Hollow...lol, if only I where 5 years old and scared of the monsters under the bed this would be funny. it's more in depth than that...it's true i was comparing it to that and half heartedly making fun of myself but at the same time it is serius. maybe this is due for a re-write. oh well. - River sleep my precious slumber |

I know what you meant when you wrote the poem, it's dark, even scary, I espescially liked "I in irony, retreat to the darkness," I felt what you meant, Hollow, Hollow who keeps the light on still  "Why are my visions so unliving with dreams? And why do I no longer care?" - Stygian |

ok, as long as we are on the same page...sorry, I'm probably more touchy about this than i should be hee hee, probably because I don't want to be thought of as the scardy cat that i really am sometimes. do you ever find yourself laughing in a horror movie? I do. it's strange. especially when things jump out. ok, so i won't leave the light on but i will turn the headphones wayy up and hide under many covers...that could get kindove hot...  - River sleep my precious slumber |
