that holds me through the dark
as I’m silently weeping
for the demon in the closet
he’s left new sores upon me

So I’m mopping up the gore
there seems to be so much
to get from ‘just a dream’
from something that isn’t real
but this world is an incubus
... it’s this world kills me...
And so much of you is frightening me
for so much of you isn’t real
and so much of you makes me ashamed
I’m surprised that I can feel
please tell me I can feel
... because if this isn't real... [comments] => 5 [counter] => 170 [topic] => 13 [informant] => InnerBeautyQueen [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

this innocence

Torn is this innocence
that holds me through the dark
as I’m silently weeping
for the demon in the closet
he’s left new sores upon me
... as if the scars just weren’t enough...
So I’m mopping up the gore
there seems to be so much
to get from ‘just a dream’
from something that isn’t real
but this world is an incubus
... it’s this world kills me...
And so much of you is frightening me
for so much of you isn’t real
and so much of you makes me ashamed
I’m surprised that I can feel
please tell me I can feel
... because if this isn't real...

Hmm different, but still heart wrenching, it seems if there is still more left unsaid with the way it ends.
But it was still an excellent write.
