Horror within

The howl of voices have left my head,
they are now residing under my bed.
In the deep of night I hear them plan,
my mind they keep,some how they can...

I fight these voices every night,
my brain it swirls with shock and fright.
I know it when i lose the battle,
my bed post starts to shake and rattle...

I hear them laugh and whisper stuff,
I close my eye and sigh a huff.
I drift to sleep...at least I think,
the voices have given some relief...

In sixteen hours it will happen again,
the nightmares start will they ever end.
I heard them say there here to stay,
you are our host come what may...

When i finally wake to the sun of morn,
my brow still wet from the night before.
I think out loud to much dismay,
I lived to see,
another day...
