    Dark Night

    I opened my eyes and felt really strange
    My thoughts so messed up and all re arranged

    The shadows on the walls and light creeping in
    I couldn't go back to sleep because there you are again

    Random thoughts of who I am at heart colliding with my soul
    These were the things that troubled me if the truth really be told

    I looked in the mirror and no longer could I see
    The person I was becoming.. Who am I is it really me?

    Do you ever wake up and feel you don't know who you are
    Not knowing how to move forward, because the past has left its scar

    Afraid… but yet wanting , I have so many dreams
    Broken I have become and lost it does seem

    Not wanting to feel afraid, I got up and turned on the lights
    What is it that will help me to get through these dark nights

    My thoughts shift, No longer in the darkness, or thinking about a shattered past
    Getting lost in my writing, and dreaming.. wondering if love can really last.

    Wonders, thoughts, and dreams are what surround me now
    not sure I can move forward.. Not sure if I know how

    I turned off the lights and crawl back in the bed
    There you are again I cant get you out of my head

    A vicious cycle I have created, how will I ever break free
    When I know in my heart you and I cannot be

    I block it out of my mind as I often have to do
    I wonder if this is what helps you, do you do this two?

    Its time to quit writing, now its time to go to sleep
    To bad tomorrow night the vicious cycle will repeat

    Your writing is so true. The world of love and heartache come together so easily. As we all search for the fairy tale ending that does not seem to come, we can read your words and know we are not alone. Good luck in your search.

    I know you have a masterpiece somewhere in that mind of yours. write and close your eyes, and follow the shadow that follows you

    Ah, a beautiful emotional wreck! Some ambitious guy is sure to try to fix you! But will you let him?

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
