Darkness Has FallenA Poem by Michael StevensSometimes, the way things seem
Woke one day to a world I didn't
know
Visions of struggle, visions of
change
Visions of warped reality;
like a fun-house mirror without the
fun
Darkness has fallen; a sinister
silence all around
Sounds so foreign, so different,
echos of silent screaming
Sounds I can not see; my vision
obscured
by doubts, like trying to make
heads or tails
out of a foreign language screamed
at you
by unseen monsters; I woke to a never-ending
nightmare that just goes on and on
and on
I just keep clinging to the fantasy
that I'll open my eyes and
everything
will make sense again, because
right now,
nothing does
