Running, Calling, Falling, Still

Running, Calling, Falling, Still

A Poem by Laylani Mullane
"

Just a poem I wrote when I was having some trouble the other night

"

Running running from the demons that are calling

crying for the life within my veins

screaming ever louder as the clock ticks further on wards

screaming screaming for the life within my veins. 

How am I to ever ignore the demons screaming

louder louder still they demand.

A simple slice, a little poke their cries fulfilled

my own heart broke

but how can I ignore

the screaming screaming for the life within my veins? 

A flash of pain,

a crimson tear falling falling further

oh I so fear. 

Far into a darkness

few have ever touched

farther farther from the pain.  

Into the darkness the calling draws me

Running, calling

falling

still….

No more pain, no more life within my veins.
