I needed to write….and Pharphelonus was there at just the right moment. Thank you friend!
Written by Pharphelonus and HastyWords
I tried falling asleep alone again
On a bed of stinging nettles
They pricked me all night again
The pain causing my mind to settle
The place was dark and lonely
And my body went blissfully numb
So the barbs no longer wounded me
I no longer felt them come
When dreams finally arose
They were like ribbons flowing
From a row of doorways
Fragments of me in the wind blowing
Down a hallway I could see
Beyond the doors, faint light
And with each trap door that I passed
Its glare became ever more bright
Reflections dripped down the walls
Like rainbows wet and bleeding
Awash with color was my sight
As the greedy light began its feeding
And there in that kaleidoscope
My focus settled on a place
Which, as I looked more closely
I saw was my own face
My mind released the torment
Sent it cascading down a drain
And as I lay there slumbering
I found myself again
Your words have a very powerful visual effect.
