Dark Night Escape

Dark Night Escape

A Poem by Willard Wells
"

Escape depression

"

Running into the night,

searching for the light,

that will bring me

out of the dark,

into the light of day.


Escaping the demons

lurking quite near.

Watching my moves,

thoughts then deeds.

Keeping watch in the dark


Moving left then right

running through the night,

searching to escape.

As the little fuckers

get in my face.


As they get closer

in an attempt

to take my light

I close the door on this night,

so I am sure I stay within the light.
