A Poem by CD

A low hum and a soft tap,what is that noise?
Breathing slow sends shivers down my back,could it be a voice?
Whispers sweet then a bloodcurdling laugh
Evil eyes gleaming,saying I cannot go back
Departing from all that was pure
I continue to doubt what was once sure
Despair has nere known a better friend
As I nightmare a black hole as my end

A sliver of light peeks through my soul's window
I gasp and clutch it to my chest then moan
As it slips through my fingers and is swallowed by shadows
On my hands and knees now I search but in vain sorrow
The tears begin to fall while a blanket of dread wraps itself around me
It was here,the Joy,then left ever so quickly
Hope for a second is none too kind for fragility
A numbness sweeps over as Death haunts his possibility

A waking sensation as if from a twisted dream
My mentality sharpens to depression's scheme
I shake my head against the storming voices
And hear the singing as all nature rejoices
Now I sense a peace and a sort of calm
Then the quivering fear that it won't stay long
My crys grow louder,my heart weaker,I am desolate
Abruptly,I wake in dawn's new rays still shaking from my vision of fate
