Best Poems Written by Sandra Nappier

Tattered Images

Seeing
tattered images
before eyes
frequently 
accompanied
with deep sighs
longing buried beneath
the heart and penetrates the soul
silent screams, falling on deaf ears
penetrating the darkness
playing on fears
loneliness
mysteries dark
intensely haunting
through the years
un-daunting
heart beats echo
throughout the brain, again
tears falling, that no one sees
accompanied with a undetectable pain
sinking ship, tossed upon stormy seas
 hearing the distant howls
as the feeling of insanity nears
unidentified
noises from deep in bowels
 awakens slowly, eyes opens,
dragging this lifeless body aside
nightmare resends
knowing
 all through cloudy day
nightmare awaits as daylight ends,
and night falls, and dark shadows sway
once more the demons
descends
as this hopeless shell bemoans
helpless recurring dins
his nightly trips
to hell and back
soul tattered, spirit rips
shattered more with each nightly attack
