PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

as the night falls and darkness drapes over the sky

as I watch the light as it turns to leave and say goodbye

as my dreams cloud up in a hazel of smoke and ashes rise

as thoughts run through my head telling myself so many lies

as I close my eyes and dream of a nightmare within me

as I look in a mirror and my distorted image is all I see

I'm not afriad



as tears fall from my eyes hammering into my soul inside

as pain curls itself up in my heart and tries to hide

as the hurt builds up and the smile on my face starts to break

as the happiness within me sleeps and can't seem to wake

as I taste the salt of my tears and it poisons me more

as my pain becomes real as it has never been real before

I'm not afraid



as silence cuts my throat and the blood runs down my neck

as my final moments of my life come and I take my last breath

as death walks towards me and reaches out to take my hand

as adrenaline rushes through my bloodstream as fast as it can

as the world around me spins making me dizzy I fall to the ground

as death approaches me I don't know what to say so I don't make a sound

I'm not afraid



as the night devours me like a midnight snack it tiptoes to get

as my mind fills clear of things I should of said, things I regret

as the obsessions in my mind haunt me in a dark corner of my bed

as voices speak to me and won't keep quiet, I hear them in my head

as people laugh at me and call me names and criticize me all through life

as I sit alone in my room for hours just staring at that tangible knife

I"m not afraid
