Fear In a Jar

I can't sleep
Once again
Tossing and turning till dawn
With my covers pulled up
Around my chin
Hoping to outlast my own demons
A simple victim of
Overzealous puritan madness
I think out loud as I'm
Losing all rational thought
As I glance at the blinking red light
Of reality
Nothing but a
Mess of tangled nerves
Great big knots of self doubt
Lodge in my world
Reaching in blind devotion for
The little round gods of tranquillity
That soothes the spirit and kills the soul
A promise filled with lies

Alone

alone in my world,
there is nothing left to say
millions of secrets went unsaid
what truth does my pain speak?

never,could i make you mine!

never did i have your love!

humiliated ,
pleading for your devotion
left to fantasize ,
rage flows though my soul
as i lay in bed
missing your touch

alone in my world
dreaming of a life without  you
