Dark Poem

You're the bullet that hits me
and makes me bleed
You're the eye patch there
So I can't see
You're the demon
That finds its way into my dreams
You're the hands around my throat
That won't let me breathe
You're the blackest night
No stars or Moon
But will fly out of your grasp
like a child's balloon.
