Final Darkness (Rises?)
October 21, 2014
At 18, I mistrusted,
Day-dreamed big!
Cozily I unwound, looking back wishing,
Wanting a well-caring mother or father.
Wouldn't change what happened.
I have lived a lot of nightmares
It's Dark in my head...
My room...
My world...
Time alone.
Turning inward.
No true friends.
Is there anyone I can...
Truely trust?
I've slipped and fallen so many times.
With no-one to catch my dreams,
My Good Night beckons me Come
