In The Dark
In the dark
I feel the veil of lonliness creep up
Like an ever-distant shadow,
Just waiting for the sun to set.
In the dark
I feel afraid.
I am vulnerable to the feelings inside that
Boil up and threaten
To take over my very being.
My body
My mind.
In the dark I feel helpless.
Blood rushing to my head as if I am
Upside down.
The tears fall on my pillow
As I lay
Down on my bed.
In the dark
I am raw
From emotions deep within.
In the dark
I am scared,
Of letting that evil win.
