SURVIVING

PLUNGING TO THE BLACK

Written by TwinDaddy and HastyWords Voices swim by Muted as I drown In the crystal calm Away from sound Light fades slowly Dancing in waves Blissful asphyxiation Subaquatic grave I breathe the depths Into my burning lungs Feeling the warmth Of its liquid tongues Deprived of vital air Existence seeps away I turn to face…

I have come to think of the voices in my head as spirits.  Demons, I suppose, that possess me until I exercise them and let them out.  These voices are mostly evil and they tell me the most hurtful lies.  I am thankful for my blog, for my readers, for my friends, for holding my…
