Insanity

I'm sitting here   hearing the noises   the voices in my head.   they ramble on  of a better place  and oh the warmth of the red    thats flowing down   into a puddle   beside me on the floor,   if I had the strength   I'd scream for help   thats just beyond the door,  my demons are screaming  with great delight  at what they've accomplished today,    the devil is coming    to drag me to hell,    to take my soul away.   i feel the evil    gripping my soul   i cant seem to gasp for a breath,   my soul is fading   my sights going dim   it seems ive met my uncertian death.    theres a woman screaming   just hang on honey   let me go get some one,    the demons are shrieking    and laughing at me ,   the damage has already been done.   the devil herself    is standng by me   telling me to close my eyes and sleep,    it'll all be over   in just a short while    and no more will i hear a peep,    from the voices that haunt me   and scream all hours   but the devil is such a liar,   she's just dragging me down    to toss me in    that horrible enternal fire.   i hear my demons    screaming again  dancing around in my head,    they are celebrating     their joyous occasion     because they think im dead.     im not dead though,   im still alive    although thats not what Gina was hoping,    because she's the devil,   the one with the steel,   that cut my arms wide open.

I enjoyed reading your poetry this afternoon Sue. I hope to be able to read a lot more of your writing in this new year of 2012. I hope this is fantasy. Love, Carol
