Madness Part 2

Kori Kathryn Harris 1977 (CA)

Free verse
The screaming inside has got to stop
Madness is taking over
The pain inside is overwhelming
Madness is taking control
Lightning keeps flashing
Thunder keeps crashing
Rain keeps falling
All going unchecked through my mind
Darkness is coming
I wish you were still here
Darkness is falling
Part of the physical plane
Darkness is consuming
Not the ghost that you are
Thunder keeps crashing
Rain keeps falling
Lightning keeps flashing
All just running through my mind
I miss you more than life
The Madness is consuming me again
Now you're my guide and guardian
The Darkness is taking control again
This is now what we are together
Rain keeps falling
Lightning keeps flashing
Thunder keeps crashing
Forever going through my mind
