Waking Up

Darkness fills the room,
Flowing like a ghost
Creeping
like a spider

Eyes clenched closed
Blanket over the head
Hiding from the reality that awaits.

It is awful
how empty this house feels
and you were never here.

The air is bitter cold
The invisible monsters surround
on all sides

Hands rolled into small fists
Each breath shorter than the last
Heart trembling

Silent tears
Silent prayers

-

I awake to a bright sun.
No one would ever guess the night terrors that stalk me.
But courage comes from the heart.

Not a needle

Your invisible monsters are haunting me now.
I will battle until I'm blue from death.

Unity

 Each  and every  day we grow older Our wrinkles grow deeper Our hair thins greys and falls out Each  and every  day We grow My heart aches ...
