A Storm In The Mind

©

Published by Family Friend Poems July 22, 2024 with permission of the Author.

In the shadows of silence, it stirs
A whisper, unseen but felt.
Like a ghost
With a grip like iron, emotions to melt.

A storm in the mind
Thoughts relentless and unkind
Even in the quietest hours, it dwells
A thief in the night, peace does it bind.

Heartbeats like drums, echoes within
Each breath a battle,
Each thought a maze
A dance with the darkness,
But lost in the fog

Eyes search for solace,
Shadows deepen, the walls close in.
A struggle unseen,
A silent plea.
In the quiet of night, in the light of day,
A fight with myself;
A fight to be free.
A hope for peace.
