alone in the dark

when i close my eyes
i am alone
in the dark.
my dark.
my alone.
my eyes.
my thoughts,
they play tricks on me.
try to make me think i'm there,
when i'm pretty sure i'm here.
my dreams,
they are cruel to me.
they show me things that are not there,
but seem so real,
and just out of reach.
all the time.
just out of reach.
when i close my eyes
i pass from dark to dream
and all the while
i do it alone.
even in the company of friends,
it is done alone.
my alone.
my dark.
my haunting dreams.
alone.
