Image for the poem infidel

infidel

 
darkness grows infidel of the soul  
marred remains evidence of a crime  
theft of heart cries foul  
 
the shadows grow long  
anxiety peaks then recedes  
as the day draws out  
time seems to stop for you  
 
the torture of the day never ends  
spikes the shame to add grievance to pain  
turning slowly on the rack  
confessions fall on deaf ears  
 
your will pools on the floor  
chained to the bleak wall of doubt  
the sound of your spirit fainting resounds  
 
your demons circle  
you're outnumbered  
dour outcome...your mind numbs  
 
slowly acceptance dawns  
your identity forgotten  
its won
