Dancing with Demons

My Heart bleeds
the flow is steady
not flinching in Pain
no liquid fear in sight
yet here I sit
with a wrenching heart
and an empty shell
all colors have faded
and no music soothes the soul
as the beat of my spirit
quietly slows

My thoughts darken
I cannot find any happiness
my words tare and separate
into wounded poetry
meant only for the mentally depressed
blood and black love
fill the pages of my mind
I can no longer see the light

My Smile disappears
dreary dreams fill my sleep
and evil pictures are my lullaby
dancing demons take the moonlight
as angels vanish with the sunshine...
