sanity

Slipping

Slowly slipling

Fading

Slowly fading

Into darkness

Into nothingness

I hang

On the edge

One hand

Gone

I try to hold on

But

The other

It's gone too

Darkness

Slowly  consumes

Everywhere I look darkness

Silence

Slight laughter

Distant

But it creeps

Closer

Closer

A light flickers on

Its over head

Closer

Closer

A clown emerges

Its tward the corner

Black paint

Sinister smile

Evil

My sanity

Slipping

Grip on reality

Weakened

Sight

Slowly fading

Laughter again

This time from the Clown

Were more alike

Than you tought

Me and the clown you see

Look at him now

Seems hes lost it too
