In the Darkness
Poetry
Darkness falls,
feeding my anxieties
throughout the endless hours
of the night.
The moonlight
casting shadows,
villains wreaking havoc
causing my nerves
to split with fright.
Roaming thoughts
rule my unpleasant,
troubled dreams,
causing me to stir and wake
every hour it seems.
The rising sun
finally Peeking through
my window,
ending an infilling night
of dread and apprehension.
Somehow,
I’ll make it through
another day,
and pray the next night
will be filled with sleep
and the nightmares stay
away!
