Shake

by Ali   Oct 14, 2005


Shake,
shiver,
quake.
eyes glazed over,
staring far away,
lost in darkness,
whimper,
cry for help,
begging for emancipation,
wishing to be released,
released from his clutches.

The shadows move,
taunting,
enticing,
The shadows move!
drawn in,
looking deep,
waiting for movement,
waiting for him,
He's here,
he's ALWAYS here.

trembling,
lost,
hurting,
can't wake up,
tot he bittersweet melodies,
the twisted lullabies,
songs locked away,
distant,
muffled.
Can't wake up,
to the time left behind,
to the cold chill,
Or the warm embrace,
and the cries,
of a broken soul.

Memories,
tucked away,
flooding back,
illuminated,
unlike before,
intense,
imaginative,
nightmare.
HIM.
rash and foolish,
bitter,
hostile,
haunting,
like a ghost,
haunting the mind,
and memories,
nightmares.

Shake,
shiver,
quake,
open eyes,
snapping motion,
searching,
staring,
fearful.
Can't wake up,
Can't forget.
The shadows move,
gathering in the corners,
laughing at their torture,
THE SHADOWS MOVE!
fog,
smothered,
covered and wrapped,
ick.
Shake,
shiver,
quake,
running from him,
He's here,
he's ALWAYS here.......
