shivers

somehow these abrasive, sandy words were cast in such a way that they became a glass window into my own soul...

these shivers run deep

quivering into madness

impossible to sleep

scared of dreams filled with truth and sadness

these shivers run deep

sweat pours non stop

slipping down a slope so steep

quickly descending from the top

these shivers run deep

sunny rays blind

into the darkness i still creep

depression lingers and yet i dont mind

These shivers run deep

The silence made me numb 

Salvation is within a quick leap

To my demise will I eventually succumb? 

the shivers are no more

this terror has ceased

these words have become a realistic door.

Author's Note

please leave insight or thoughts. my first piece in a long time and i want to head in the right direction

Once you start writing again it seems that it all comes back to you. I love repetition in poetry, it allows all the other text to really soak in. Good job!

Sorry that you cowerd on the edge of madness
in a constant state of shaking with profuse
night sweats. Eventually as you write, the palsy
ceased and you find freedom to resume your normal
life.
We have missed you---- I have particularly .
Thank you for this exciting poem---- I hope you willl
write much more----- soon.
