like something is wrong

emotions chip away at my heart of stone
now I am
being haunted by a ghost

my soul is lost
tears and fears are born
in a paranormal storm

can not sleep at night
unless
I leave on the light

monsters under my bed
come to life...

off balance
I wander in a daze
in a alternative state
as I look into my mind
shadows with faces but no eyes
look back and smile
when you ask what is going on
all I can do is sigh

I am trying to change lanes
but it feels so strange
running from darkness and shadows

nothing to lose
but bitterness and patterns
on a haunting landscape
with a invisible host who is unknown

I see shadows
in the corner of my eye
even in the light

monsters that I created
shake my bed at night

//shadows with faces but no eyes

This poem is sad and a bit creepy! Fantastic writing. I believe I/'/ve been there a time or 100.

I like how this poem floats from push and pull.
Always shifting line to line. I don/'/t find it sad but very imaginative and well written.
One of your top ten.

It sounds like hyper vigilance reared her dreadful head ... she’s a beast ... When I read this I felt the pain and fear, but I also see your resilient strength and knowledge to slay this burden.

//Nothing to lose
But bitterness and patterns ...//

//Monsters that I created ...//

That’s right. Now break those monsters down like a stack of Legos and create something new. Something better.

Great stuff!

I need to be cheesy and say that this piece is hauntingly good ;) seriously though, beautiful imagery throughout! I love this simple but eye-catching phrase: "a paranormal storm" it really paints a picture in the reader/'/s mind! nicely crafted all around.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
