A struggle, daily
Scratching and clawing at the bone wall
Bloody tips paint death on canvas
Violent screams only rattle the crypt
No sound reaches the far beyond
A plea released, never received
Rabid savage encased in dead memories
Shrouded by skeletal divide
Safe is the world�

You have been hitting some very strong points and covering very shadowy territory of late, my friend. Your words here create a very visceral effect that can't be ignored or brushed away from the mind's eye easily. Well done! Hang in there. Always darkest before the sun comes up? What happens when it all crashes? We rebuild.
