As the Darkness Creeps Back into me Again
One hundred thoughts rushing through my head It’s all just slipping away And this time you can’t save me (I can’t even save myself) Losing everything I once I knew I wince away the tears --Won’t let you see For the harder I try to The harder it gets But I just can’t let go.. (I’ll never let go..)
Humid air surrounding me The heat taking over And yet I’m so cold inside --Ice circulating my veins Numbing my body-leaving my soul (Just free the pain..) Crimson drops falling from the sky Letting it pour down-drench me As if washing me of my sin (But only darkening it in reality) Seeping through my eyes Down to the core.
The windows--frosted A white film concealing the once remembered truths I watch through the broken glass Longing to step through Into the world where you are Only to be cut. Aloof from this life Absent from this body I’m just a doll-fragile and hollow Only empty inside.. (Things aren’t all that they seem to be..) Set here to please-entertain Asunder from the grief I set aside- The sanity I kept balled in my palm- Clenched in my fist.
Past images flash before my eyes As the blackness surrounds me So many things left unfinished-undone So many questions left unanswered And the envelope keeps slipping over me Waiting to be closed Only one thought remains- What lies beyond the spiral staircase? The images now fading Blackness replacing them The envelope now sealed- As the darkness creeps back into me again.
