UNTITLED (Good Night)


As the rain splatters on my window,
Asleep I fall, knowing that though
In the morning the sun will rise;
And the nightmares will cease; 
The truce is always short lived! 
Soon enough the daymares arise
My angels...my demons - Dan Brown - 
through the myriad of heaven & hell 
Though the glare of this sun hides
50 shades of grey - the doom and gloom shines; 
As though my name was Grey - 
Through pleasures unseen and illuminating cries of pain unheard. 
Bad they may be, so maybe
Hide your eyes and don't see; 
But see, the truth sets you free!
I'm a prisoner of my own glee
Though free I am not 
I paid the fee for my own greed
And though I plead with my shadow
For me to stop following
My mind gets idle, but
Suicidal I am not and never will be! 
Tonight as I fall asleep to the wars
Of thoughts that course through my mind
I clutch at pieces of peace as I remember;
The past is tomorrow, 
The future is today and 
Yesterday is tomorrow! 
Good night.
