Whimsical shadows that play in the light

Taunting and teasing you every night

Hiding in corners, they fill you with dread

You’re starting to wonder, is this in your head?

Or are they just playing, these spirits so dark?

Choosing to haunt, on a whim, on a lark

Then disappearing from view, once again

Wondering if they’ll return and when

Lying awake, with the night, you’re attune

Waiting, for shadows, in the light of the moon

IMG_1369
It’s hollow in the darkness
Where thoughts and fears collide
The rapid beating of my heart
That tears me up inside

Can you hear my silent cries?
Soft whispers in the night
Do you hear me calling you?
When things don’t go just right

Don’t leave me here, alone,
Again, I cannot face the day
These battles, much too hard to win
My body, worn and frayed

Answers to my questions
Left lingering in air
I’m asking for your comfort, please!
Just let me know you’re there

A sign to reassure me
Everything will be alright
It’s hollow in this darkness
I need to see your light
