Unravel

 

Dark lonely skies bask

over sleepless eyes.

Lost sighs cackle through dry lips.

Smiles long faded, no longer dazzle.

A lone strike of lightning

and the sound of thunder rips.

 

A bleak night,

pitch black, the clocks tick.

The echoing tock sings back

and over my head, a cloud.

Crowded thoughts

shouting too loud.

 

Foreboding forest of the night,

I hear the footsteps creeping through,

twigs and branches snapping,

saplings hiding from the view.

I hear the wind rushing,

the rustling leaves crackle.

Another strike of thunder

and the sky starts to rattle

 

Inky void, I hear your voice

I hear the chorus. the darkness applauds.

I feel the tingle of static buzz,

I hear the hum of the electricity rush

between my ears

and fear sits with me here.

In the darkness, I feel its hands.

Tightly icy fingers entwine with mine.

A shiver down my spine

as my mind starts to unravel,

a single thread at a time.
