Darkness, long, black and silent,
I'm all alone in my comfortable cell,
My own mind a personalized hell,
My bible at hand , need I repent
I feel them before i hear them,
Their presence obvious yet obscure,
Im playing "Find Noddy" with my demons,
Is Noddy there? Im not sure.
My fingers shake with sweaty palms,
"Cmon boy" I say "Stay calm"
Breathe I think and repeat,
Try to make my thoughts short and neat.
In...
I steal a glance around my room,
Then wish i could return it.
Out...
The shadows morph and re-adjust,
My eyes , it seems , i cannot trust.
In...
I can feel them watching,
waiting.
Out...
If i drop my eyes, let sleep claim its stay,
I know they wont hesitate to drag me away.
In...
My heartbeat is racing , ready for the kill,
going so fast it seems to be standing still.
Out...
This isnt working , honestly i never win.
I just claim my corner till morning,
till the next night , it will all begin,
But this night is different, i grin while im yawning.
The twinkle in my eyes has a reason to spark,
I know the torture wont last in the dark,
The reason I have my bible and fret if I've sinned,
Is that soon my monsters will go with the wind.
The fire will cleanse my mind of what's wrong,
I'll burn my house down until everything's gone.
