PLACES TO HIDE

PLACES TO HIDE

 

They were just hallucinations

 

You see

 

The things you saw

 

The things you heard.

 

I only wish now

 

I told you

 

I saw and heard them too.

 

I couldn’t step into the depths

 

Of your reality

 

Taunted by phantoms

 

Ghosts and demons

 

Eating at your soul.

 

But

 

I was fighting the Beast that took your mind.

 

I couldn’t bring you back

 

From the edges of insanity.

I tried.

 

 Now the Beast is after me.

 

Memory is the guide to my salvation.

 

A place I run to hide.

 

A place I see you all replay

 

The scenes of yesterday.

 

A place not easy to find.
