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.
