“Inside The Darkness”
As the darkness holds me
I fear I will not wake
Not only do I doubt my will
But all that I can take
Seemingly as it seems
I still seem to dream
Bad things, good things
Things I wish I’d never seen
Never a hand to help me
Or any easy release
Never does the torment end
And never does it cease
I’m hollowed by the waking light
Greatful for not being dead
Preparing for what is to come
What darkness lies ahead

If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
