resistance

stop the darkness from overtaking
the brightness of this life

stop the ebb and flow
of the depths of despair
from overtaking
all that I have done
and all that is good
in this lonely sphere of existence
a desolate landscape of terror and regret

fighting the wraiths and tombstones
of the wishes and actions past

at war with the demons that tear and rip
of flesh and bone and everything
within my head

I am breaking free
captured in the steely grasp
the arms of futile endevors
promises unkept and spewed in anguish

the filtering of the light
the sinking feeling
the time for me

to face the

unknown
