This poem is for our Poetry Reading session tomorrow for our Creativity and Intuition class. It's been awhile since I last wrote a poem so please bear with me.

I close my eyes and remember
the feeling of my despair
the ache of my heart
and the pain of my soul

I try to scream for freedom
I try to cry for help
but the empty room
only brings echoes and no answers

I reach for you
to pull me out of this nightmare
to bring me back to reality
but you push me back in the darkness

I hear you whisper to me
this is the reality
then you hold my hand
and close your eyes

Together we fall.
