"Painful Shadows"
Ron Kinard (c) 2002

dreams elude me

nightmares running rampant

sucking out the light

consuming the concept

of life

dying in a dream

falling, falling, falling

plunging into eternal darkness

a bottomless pit

tumbling, spiraling, falling forever

unless awakened

hesitation

do I really want to wake up

haunted by ghosts long deceased

realization of a new life

leaving the past behind

struggling

stirring my body into consciousness

jumping out of bed shaking, trembling

eliminating those pent up

painful shadows
















forgetting the past is sometimes a difficult task...
