Fragile minds
Having nightmarish thoughts
Bloody tears travel over flush cheeks
Ear shattering screams of torture bellowing through the night air
Insanity grows closer with each vision
Invisible demons wondering the night
Seeking out lost lonely souls
Offering immortality
Corrupting hearts of purity
Clouding minds of untainted thoughts
Instilling fear in all around them
Flickering flames of gas fade into the darkness of the indigo sky
Fear grows stronger as the night moves on
Every turn new demons arise
Raging on in a never ending battle of the mind and will
Strength lessoning with every hours passing
Until dawn breaks
Swallowing and banishing the fearful visions of the imagination
Hiding them in the shadows of the minds eye
Til the return of the cloaking night
So as they may once again roam to taunt
The subconscious fragile minds of the weak

My dear...
I did not think when I wrote this piece, not even for a moment. I simply sat down with a pen in hand and not 3 minutes later I had a paper filled with chicken scratch and this was the result.
Many of my work I do not think about I simply put the pen against the paper and let myself go. What comes out comes out in the end. -
Very well thought out, and penned...I like this, makes you ponder, and I like a piece that does that...but not to the point I hurt me widdle brain ofcourse, lol...

This could be ones worst nightmare, you have written this so well, your imagery is fantastic. Fear can be very difficult to conquer, here it seems this could be a recurring nightmare someone has time and time again. Word choice is excellent, your poem flows so well from start to finish.
Well Done!
