Alone Tonight

Falling
Without limit
It is all within my head
I think
But why does it feel so real
Like there is nothing
To keep me up here

Don't listen to the sirens
They call you
Into a depth of blackness
You didn't know was there
They take you from
Your reality
Into theirs

All that brought you joy
Solarizes to pain
And the pain
To pleasure
Until your sanity
Slowly drips away
Because your not sure
What is good for you
And what is bad

There is a dark side
To us all
And when it can
It comes
Unbidden
Sometimes
Uncontrolled
It is strong enough
To overcome life itself

I'm sane enough to
Go to work tomorrow

I think...

I hope...
