The Silent Monster
May 24, 2012
The eerie cry of painful pasts
The blackened remnants never last
Your demons baying tortured yelps
Your whole being starkly contrasts
The shadows hiding everywhere
The helpless need of who’s not there
Horrific thoughts of tragic ends
The smaller things harder to bear
The singeing ache will start to numb
Your barren mind begins to crumb
The war continues through the night
The bleakness clouds what you’ve become
No longer can you take your bane
The more ‘okay’ the more you sprain
The silent monster wins again
The silent monster wins again
