Tattered and broken

I'm scared to close my eyes
Scared to see what terror hides behind
The fear, the trauma, my own despair
There's no way to hide from what lies there
I know as soon as my mind drifts away
I will watch as you murder, stab and slay
It's always me at the end of all that death
And I try so hard to avoid my rest.
But there's no escape from what lies beneath
The terror that lurks awaiting me
Waiting to crush what ever peace remains
Dragging my soul across the roughest terrains
Ripping, snagging, tearing to pieces
My soul devoured by my very own demons.
All that remains is tattered shreds
Of myself being left across the world for dead
Shards of my soul drifting with the wind
Scattered across the worlds ends.
Nothing left but my hollowed out shell
Just An empty corpse of the fear to dwell
