Darkness Inside Me

—✨

Doors all locked,
Black, blocked,
Sorrow's room, trapped,
Tremulant, hands clasped.

Broken wings, couldn't fly,
Couldn't move,down-and-out,
Lying down, hugging knees,
Sobbing,misty-eyed.

Trembling, scared,
Bruised, eager to be held,
Seeking courage,
Yet couldn't raise my head.

Heart beating, lifeless,
Prostrated, breathless,
It's rapidly consuming me,
Swallowed by this darkness inside me.
