Sleep…
Deep in the darkest place there is no sleep
No rest or ease of mind
No rest
No dreams of clouds or fantastic places
No rest
Now I only dream of bad things
Memories that are not my own
Not me
Not me in my dreams
Only a stranger
Someone stranger than me
A duality that reaches for love but claws at it with reckless abandon
A animal in a cage not of his making who holds the key to his own cell
A cage with no walls yet a prison still it makes
A Shadow Me
Split into many halves
A Shadow Me that creeps in from the dark
Into the waking world it crawls and shouts vile words at the world around it
Makes me feel things that I immediately regret…
Just think!
Think and hold onto me myself and the very core of who I am
There is light wanting to spill out like water from a fountain
I feel the light but The Dark traces what it wants of me with sharp claws making sounds like nails on a chalkboard…
Is it too late?
The grin is already on my face and the evil words spill out with sharp points
This is not me I repeat ad nauseam
This is not me
This is not me
This is not
me
