Like Clockwork

Slowly… the night falls. Creeping, the thoughts crawl. Darkness settles in- no light Heavy thoughts are here all night Tears will fall, and pain erodes Carving pieces of my soul Each night I play this game again Never does it let me win Can’t stop its power over me Can’t stop the pain- the tears I bleed Lonely, weak, sad, and hurt I wonder what my life is worth. 1:23am 4-8-12
