My Darkness

my darkness

my sadness

haunts me like a sheer demon on my back

who will not leave me alone, who will stay and attack

my soul trapped in a small corner

while a demon is screaming, demanding and giving orders

while everything seems like a dream

it's hard to escape from this horror theme

I get angry, because my dreams haunt me

but when I'm in a deep sleep I can't ever seem to get them off me

my darkness

my sadness

they never leave me

they terrify me

till I sleep and I can't get up

to my dreams and the demons that want

to paralyze and destroy me

to the point where my limbs are gone

my spirit torn

to the point where I think I'm gong to wake up

from this horrible dream

no

it's a nightmare reality
