THE PAINS OF DARKNESS

AMBER LIGHT, FADING, DYING
DARKNESS, ENCOMPASSING, CONSUMING
VOICES, UNTRUTHFUL, LYING
FEAR, UNCERTAINTY LOOMING.

SLEEPLESS NIGHT, TOO WELL KNOWN
NIGHTMARISH HORRORS ON NIGHTS OF FITFULL SLEEP
PEACEFUL DREAMS FAR AWAY HAVE FLOWN
ONLY DESPAIR FOLLOWS, FOREVER DEEP.

PACING, FRIGHTENED, CRAVING DAWN
WISHING AWAY THE AWFUL VOICES.
KNOWING NOT WHERE HOPE HAS GONE
AND HAVING NO MORE CHOICES.

BLACK GIVES WAY TO GRAY
THE VOICES DRIFT AFAR
THE SUN GIVES PROMISE OF A NEW DAY
AND ERASES EACH AND EVERY SCAR.

BUT SOON THE LIGHT BEGINS TO FADE
GIVING WAY TO DARKNESS ONCE MORE.
AGAIN SHE MUST LIE UPON THE BED SHE MADE
AND CRY HER PAIN AS BEFORE.

Thank you, My Dear Sweeet Friend ~ How well you know me!  It's so bizarre, living with these "disorders"... how you can be fine with it one moment & then just hit rock bottom with it the next!  
How to find peace, if not within His arms?  Thank God for Queensryche, as I can scream in Pain or sing in Harmony...  I can not Thank You enough for your cards, your calls & your kind words of encouragement (even when I baulk at them)...
I love you like a sis too ~ Give Mikey a hug, even if he is a male!  LOL.  Talk to you soon, and huggin's to you too, My GF!
