In this cold dark room
I sit here longing for a way out
Slowly, softly I look arounf
Not wanting to disturb
The horrible creature there
Silently I turn to the walls
Of my small cage
It looks into my eyes
This monster of my soul
To face this terror is
Beyond my wildest dreams
Screaming I run wall to
Wall trying simply to
Get away.
I feel a soft hand
On my wrist, turning
Me softly
I wake in the
Arms of my love
My love who so
Softly holds me
Close to him
He held me tight
As I screamed
Tonight I won't have
To face the monster.
But it will be back
To tear the love from
My soul
I am so sorry that you have this creature to haunt you. I have just such a creature, and it refuses to leave me alone. You have written a very emotional, heartfelt, and soulful poem of heartache and pain, where even the arms of your lover cannot protect you for long. Even as dark and eerie that this is, thank you for sharing the truth that is pain. Love & hugs, Barbara
