Chased By Shadows That Whisper In The Dark
Don't Turn Around ~ Poem
broken mirrors in my mind
decisions I could never make
chased down by shadows in the night
colliding hopelessness and fate
whispers calling in the dark
profiting from my mistakes
so many caverns in a heart
an unseen enemy in chase
like a storm cloud bove' my head
trying hard to negate fear
billowed clouds brimming with dread
riding on sighs no one can hear
I can feel the weight of giving in
sneaking up on me in all directions
like a battle in my chest that I can't win
giving it away with piloerection
a promise and resolve go hand in hand
fate and consequence demands the same
my eyes scour the spaces, scanned
in bated breath the wind whispers my name
**
**piloerection (raised hair)
