the colour red,
the rage in your head,
the clench of your fists,
the helplessness
all you can do is watch
as everything around you gets crushed
all you feel is numb
after anger had its fun

She hoped that monsters were just shadows sneaking around corners, but the shadows turned around and gobbled up the monsters. The shadows were still hungry, they are never satisfied, always lonely, always wanting more.
They kept creeping in the dark when no one could see them, looking for their next friend, victim, meal.
“Come to the darkness” they whispered to her. “We will accept you. You need no words with us. We understand you.”
Throughout her life, she tried to run from the shadows, always running to be in the light were she could keep an eye on the shadows. Unbeknown to her, the shadows were always there, right behind her, attached to her like a starfish to a rock.
Over time they leisurely engulfed her.
She did not even notice...
Slowly the colour faded from her world...
It felt like the shadows were running into her like a stripped faucet with water running into a sink. She could not stop it. The water rose and began to spill over the sink’s rounded edge. She could not breathe. And then it happened, the shadows were finally drowning her. She tried desperately to reach for the surface, gasping for air, but the shadows were pulling her down into the abyss. “Don’t fight it” they whispered sweetly in her ear, caressing her soul. She started to panic. The more she fought the shadows, the heavier they became until she did not know where the shadows ended and she began...

The urge to write a joyous poem
yet darkness drip from my mind.
I want to feel the magnificent
but there is nothing but nothing inside.

Ashes to ashes
Dust to dust
Everyday a soul is lost
Souls of love
Souls of lust
Souls on endearment
Souls of trust
Souls full of knowledge
Leave people like us
With questions unanswered
And feelings unmastered
The void of their absence
Still lingers with longing
Tear drops of silence
will forever keep falling.

Lostness creeps through my veins
Everyday stays the same
Each breath is confirmation of a world continued
Proof of existence unending
Walls are built to outsmart hurt
But what is inside stays inside
In a safe in your heart with a code only you know
Lies the secrets and denials of life, lived and survived
Here I go again
Why do I do this
The code remains unknown
A riddle to the discover
The answers to a world lost and forgotten
Anger burns my soul
Caged in the nightmare
Of dark mazes of the mind
And laughing, mocking faces in fences
Shadows clouds loneliness
Alone, so alone
This hell is built for one alone
Only space for spectators
Feelings are a different dialect
No way to explain or translate
The door slams shut hard
The darkness will hold on
To what is lost and never forgotten
Just hidden
No escape
