Defeat
by Patt Paulos-Darrow
The darkness has come again I am feeling alone and lost.
Sadness overwhelming my being, not knowing what to do.
It is handled in the daytime when I have complete control.
But once the darkness comes, something takes over and I am at a loss.
The fear is here again, I try to close my eyes but still see the terror.
When will these dreams stop?
Darkness please leave me in peace, why do you do this?
Have I not suffered enough?
Blair, please guide me.
I can't do this any longer.
