Inspired by a line in Don Mclean’s song “Vincent”.

It seems to me there is a place that lingers in my mind.
A dark and dreadful kind of space, that I dare not try to find.
Emotions I have kept inside, dredged from a deep dark hole.
I can’t escape, I cannot hide, from the darkness in my soul.
Like a mongrel dog it follows,always close at hand.
Beware it’s rabid bite,it will consume you if it can.
Violent angry hateful place, filled with darkness and despair.
It tears at you to take control destroyer without care.
I cannot run away from this, it is there just out of sight
Lurking like an an ambusher, to cut me in the night.
I wish that I could find the light, to somehow make me whole.
Til then I wage my private war, with the darkness in my soul.
