In the dark of midnight

[nikkinoodles]

In the dark of midnight,

I sit there looking on,

Who could see me there?

Would they even care?

When I appear to be safe and well,

Thou they cant read my mind,

They can't see the battle,

That rages on within me,

In front of me,

Everywhere,

And there is no escape,

Nightmares are just shadows,

Of how I really feel,

I haven't dreamed for ages,

The hallucinations keep me awake,

I feel my heart breaking,

With every breathe I take,

I try to hold them in,

But tears fall down as waterfalls,

And never seize to calm,

I've cried more than a river,

Even more than a lake,

It must have been an ocean,

An ocean of you,

But u don't deserve the honour,

My battle of pain and pride,

Because you are not worth my tears,

And now I can say goodnight.

thats cool, i love what you have to say at the bottom and yes you should do it more often i enjoyed reading it to say the least.

im not going to analyse since well i thought the topic was obvious, very empowering last line to your poem, seems like a proud line.

 

great poem though seemed like a self achievement.
