blink blink blink
3:07AM
the letters scream in red
blink blink blink
monotony stares back at me
time freezes
the winds come
the demons come
the night like always
dark and painful
inscrutable
listen to me i want to cry
hear me
why do u hate me
my rage builds
anger
despair
more demons
madness shares breath with sanity
blink blink blink
the pain comes next
like icicles to the heart
somehow the demons have entered
with their weapons
after each spear
weakness
then
acceptance
then
sadness
why have you left me
who am I
no answer
blink blink blink
