In the Light (Free verse) by nocturnalism
Out in the open, out in plan sight Hearing every thought in your head It's hiding in the light Mocking every word you've said No escaping from this constant psychosis All shadows disappear from the reality of this nightmare I never thought the neurosis Would last this long, but now its clear I'll never make it back from where I came Ther's to much guilt too deny Its too late now, I'm too ashamed There's no escape from all the lies It's hiding in the light, filthy creature of depravity In plan sight its scorning me

truth my son...will set you free. Champagne and vasoline addictions are hard to come by.. you'll see. I like it. I like the honesty (more)...and contentment that i see (and feel) from now on. 7

Besides being awful, I think you have a terrible misunderstanding of neurosis and that adds to the banality twofold.

such a dark feeling... to have your personal demons destroying every bit of your being... I relived the pain I went through but i promise, the pain will pass. great poem :o)
