My Mind’s Monsters
written by: the hairy bum welder
My mind’s monsters entwine
me, within their
Sadistic lies
Whisper upon my imaginary
ears within dreams
Their breath voices, bring forth
Yield
my spilt personalities
to the surface, of my
corrupted mind
Telling me lies of horror
commanding me
within my saine
mind.
Actions my sanity
wishes not to
act upon
A melancholy
of thoughts
enclose within my
dreams
embossed upon the life force
of my own
breath
my soul’s strength adhering
to the call of
their commands
as I lose the battle to
darkness.
As the keen blade passes
Draws across
Blue veins within the grasp
of my own
Palms hands
Their voices dissipated diluted
Upon a waterfall of red
Fluid
I smile as my mind is
Silent
I'm a 53-year-old welder/fabricator with a passion for poetry. I live near Cambridge, in the UK. I've suffered from anxiety for years, poetry helps. Sometimes I can't even remember writing when the anxiety is that bad. I think did I really write that?? A lot of my poetry I don't name, I hope it relates to people and their personal thoughts as it does mine, so they can choose to name it personal to them. I also have a page on Facebook, 'Poetry by the hairy bum welder.'
