Same Dark Episode Poem by Fareez Phalez

I think I recognize this feeling
Familiar misery and pain
The demon from nine years ago
Is here to haunt me again

He's keeping me up at night
In my bed I toss and turn
Drowning in dark thoughts
With an urge to rip my chest open

And when I fall asleep
I'm having crazy nightmares
Wake up gripping my skull
I might just pull out my hair

I need to speak up
But I don't know how to start
So if you're reading this
Understand it's from my heart

This is a cry for help
For those who understand me
It's dragging me to hell
Please reach out to me and save me
