Over my soul darkness is cast,
I try to run away but I feel trapped,
Right inside the demons I find myself wrapped.

All I want is for them to leave my side,
I long to find a place in which I can hide,
But the shadows follow my every move,
Pushing me deeper into this blackened groove.

Why does yesterday keep haunting me so?
Maybe it’s because I just can’t let go,
But I don’t know how to I am too weak,
All my horrors come out in my sleep.

My dreams are painted with the colour black,
I am trapped way down in this crack,
I long to crawl out pull myself together,
Keep out of my soul the cold & rainy weather.

I try to scream but it’s caught in my throat,
I try to shout but I begin to choke,
My mind is left in a terrifying place,
There are only bad things left to laugh in my face.

Haunted By Shadows Of Yeterday

Haunted by the shadows of days past,
Over my soul darkness is cast,
I try to run away but I feel trapped,
Right inside the demons I find myself wrapped.

All I want is for them to leave my side,
I long to find a place in which I can hide,
But the shadows follow my every move,
Pushing me deeper into this blackened groove.

Why does yesterday keep haunting me so?
Maybe it’s because I just can’t let go,
But I don’t know how to I am too weak,
All my horrors come out in my sleep.

My dreams are painted with the colour black,
I am trapped way down in this crack,
I long to crawl out pull myself together,
Keep out of my soul the cold & rainy weather.

I try to scream but it’s caught in my throat,
I try to shout but I begin to choke,
My mind is left in a terrifying place,
There are only bad things left to laugh in my face.

Words that relate to what I am going through right now pixie. That dark place where hands reach for the sun. I hope you find your sunshine

Brilliant poem

Love Sweetangelukxxx
