The night has fallen
My mind slipping away
On the verge of a breakdown
It could happen any day
The shadows upon my wall
My new and only friends
Their voices speak to me
Telling me I must mend
I am just a little unwell
I've lost the essence of me
If you give me enough time
You'll see what else I can be
Until that time comes I'll lie here awake
Fighting my demons inside
Trying to find a little bit of sanity
To make everything alright

Beautiful! I love how you wrote this as inspiration from the song, and not about the song literally. The way you wrote the poem, tells me that this song does fit you. Good Luck!

Wonderful! The rhyme was interesting. That song definitely pertains to me, too. I like how heartfelt you are. I really enjoyed the last stanza.
