The Shadow Within

Intrusive thoughts inside my head Internal conflict while I lie in bed Visions are getting blurry but louder I'm getting weaker by the hour My body feels like it’s decaying, My hopes and dreams evaporating Voices in my head start ringing They sound just like the sirens singing I know they’re deadly, lethal, fatal I try to stray, but I’m not able The singing slowly turns into screams I feel a sharp pain inside my spleen I know what I did to deserve this pain And now I know I cannot change The things I’ve done to incur this wrath When I try to get up, I slowly collapse Back to the bed in which I am laying And my blurry vision keeps on fading I feel like I’m at the end of my rope There's nothing I can do nothing to help cope And as my last words start to spray I feel that rope begin to fray This is what happens when I let the shadow within Triumph over me with a horrendous win
