Let me escape the dark within myself – Fiction

Pic – courtesy  Jeffrey Smith

tell me are your dreams
consumed
darkness disturbing
restless whisperings
invading your head
bellowing clouds
fighting in the storm
that will not let
you rest

do you want to scream

are you lost like ships at sea
embattled for war
against thoughts that
toss and turn
and those that tear
away at you
voices entombed like
castle walls
around
your world

can no one hear you

have you walked those steps
seeking help
but silently
retreat
believing the door will
never open
no one will ever answer
or show you the way

does no one care

do you wish for the beacon
to guide your journey back
to finding yourself
out of the dark
out of the grey
to trust
to feel
to live
to love

speak
