Dark Dreams
Dreams
Standing
On a ledge
Fear, spider like
Creeps closer to you
Drenching you with cold sweat
Paralysed you cannot move to
The is no chance of escaping
The blackness engulfs you and you drown
Sinking to the depths of the black abyss.

This was a deep dive into the darkness this week, Willow. I like it. Sometimes we just have to go there for a visit… then leave. I hope your week has been wonderful. I’ve been a mess all week. Those Monday holidays always goof me up. LOL! ❤

I have been chasing my tail now for a fortnight! Let’s hope we both catch up soon 💜
Sep 09, 2021 @ 18:55:19
LOL! Yes, I can’t get the dates right this week and I’ve not figured out if I’m coming or going. LOL! ❤
Sep 09, 2021 @ 18:55:59
Lol that’s me too 💜
