Silence In The Dark
As I sit alone in my unlit room
The shadows creep upon me
My overstuffed chair caresses my drunken body
Shivering in my diluted-ness
Sounds are many; not to be heard
Forms of strange creatures outside my window
Footsteps in the hall
Concerned friends wanting to help
Shut all the bad
Feeling for a moment of time
Childhood dreams only a part from the past
Raggedy Ann, my old comforter
Out of date
Missing in my own home
Ashamed of my own presence.
