The monsters are back
and they’re screaming so loud.
The darkness engulfs
once again like clouds.
~~~
“Be strong” they say;
“You’ll get through this”-
But you don’t understand,
I’m stuck in an abyss.
~~~
His words and his actions,
They put me to shame.
I should have realised that
this is all part of his game.
~~~
He shouts, he swears,
It’s never ending abuse.
But then he acts kind-
just to confuse.
~~~
Alone in this world
and lost my fight,
Consumed by the darkness
in the dead of night.
~~~
I scream and cry
but no one hears,
The flashbacks are relentless
I’m reliving my fears.
~~~
PTSD, Anxiety
and of course Depression,
Battling all of the emotions
including aggression.
~~~
This time I don’t know
if I can save myself,
My head is in bits
and so is my health.
~~~
I’m nearing an end,
I can’t hold on..
The monsters I fear
have grown too strong.
