PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Staring through darkness
To a meaningless ceiling
Can't look back, offer sympathy
Doesn't know what I'm feeling

Every thought is so odd
Not the same as before
Why am I thinking this
Am I right or just sore?

Don't fear the boogeyman
Don't fear dripping fangs
Don't fear foggy figures
Did you hear a bang?

Settling to the bottom
Beneath my bed
Are ravaging monsters
That came from my head

Midnight conclusions
Dark-induced dread
All worry monsters
Born of my head

Suddenly unsure
Of everything I once knew
Nothing fits in quite right now
The world a new shade of blue

The thoughts are all scattered
I can't find the right words
All just ugly insults
That I'm glad can't be heard

Shadows summon my secrets
All my tiniest fears
Make them dance before my eyes
Everything crystal clear

Fall asleep on wet pillows
Awake to a new pain
The thought that everything's lost
And I have nothing to gain

The sun sends back the shadows
But they leave me the fears
Lingering for hours
But I'll hold in the tears

Forget I was angry
Forget I was sad
Look at only the good things
I've had enough of the bad

Have a good day
Even though it was long
When my head hits the pillow
I can see I was wrong

Analyze all that had happened
While I was at school
Pick apart all the good things
And see I was a fool

Everything's worse
Than the night before
I'll just turn off the light
And close the door

No nightlight can save me
And no blankets can hide
My mind from persistent
Things from inside
