Into The Madness

Catch me as I fall

into the madness,

So I know you are there

and that it's not all over.

I know I can stop the pain

if I will it all away.

Don't turn away from me

because I can't hide my fears.

Scream your name

and close my eyes.

Don't turn out the light

can't sleep, can't eat in the darkness.

There's so much more yet to come

but frightened by all I see.

Blinded by tears

I can't stop from falling.

Wake to an empty bed

with whispered dreams inside my head.

Can't forsake you,

all that I've lived for.

"Can`t forsake you , all that I have lived for"
Just be decent to him, Beth.
Your poem is intense, painful and sad.
Well written.
