Madness Reigns

Something taunts me,
                       Lingering off in the distant,
      Hiding, waiting beyond the sheltering light & the.    
                        warmth of this existence. 
It calls me, whispering my name in the silence, when all 
     is still, as if the world itself banished me to some.     
     remote cave filled with only thoughts & darkness.
                   Yes it taunts me, I now believe,
                                Madness reigns.
