The Dark Hand

The dark hand stretches over in my mind

it strecthes more and more each day

the hand takes my thoughts day and night

it smashes my happiness to pieces

 

the hand takes hold of my dark times and brings them back

it breaks me down just like the day before

the thoughts overpower everything else

it is just too much for me

 

the tears help sometimes

it feels like flushing out the negatives

the hand is still grabbing my thoughts

it just won\'t give up

 

the trauma, the tragedies, the tears of the past

it takes hole of them all

the fear of the future

it is the worst of them all

 

the hand takes hold of anything

it twists and turns all of my thoughts

the thought of my death

it terrifies me and brings tears

 

the death of me

it could be painful or painless

the hand goes even deeper

it chokes the air out of my lungs

 

the night has crept through my fingers

it caused another restless night

the same one just the day before

it tires me just like everyday
