The torment rages on



Img credits : Google broken mirror.

My heart feels dark and black

like eerie shadows on a wall

My soul now trapped in pain

and I feel headed for a fall


Why do I have this turmoil

and twisted thoughts within my head 

is it the change of season 

that fills me with such dread 


Or am I just inflicted 

cursed to forever feel this way 

I want to find happiness -yes-

and live a happier day 


But the torment rages on

and demons claw to be set free 

there's an infero destruction 

at war inside of me 


You look at me and smile ...

I show you my 'gleeful face

there's nothing on the outside 

that would alarm you of my fall from grace 


Will this feeling that overwhelms me

and turns my heart to black 

soon overtake my soul too,

and never give it back?


Distant now I sit here 

as the shadows do surround 

sleep and calming thoughts 

sooth me ... and the evil - for now - has drowned

Oh babe, I hope you are just being creative and don't feel this dark.
A great piece. hugs ❤️

dis is moody nom snek, i love that opening stanza! hugs

So full of heavy emotions. Each different part takes me somewhere...

So we clamber through the dark, ever seeking our true spark...So lovely, even in your pain of dressing.

Woah that gave me chills! Had to read it twice low key!
