Nightmare
Shadows cloak the room.
Two eyes peer out of the darkness.
Fear hangs heavy in the air.
The silence is deafening,
And anger lurks in the corners.
Memories flash on the walls
And yet it is still dark in the center.
Thoughts buzz by and are gone.
The black is stifling but calming.
Something is hidden here.
The gloom is here now
And I try to break through
But I am forced back violently.
I can't reach it,
My darkest secret.
I never thought it would be this hard
To figure out my own mind.
It has completed its mission
But neglected mine.
