Welcome to the inner workings of a scorpion mind - our thoughts and our dreams  .  .  .

I used to be afraid of the dark

First my terror

Everything came to life;

 vague shadows became monsters fright

Fear griped heart as I claw in sleepless nights

alone and out of sight

Later as the grey world swallowed my sight

I would awaken from pitch dark dreams in frightful screams

Fearing

I would never see again

There alone

I never came home

Now the darkness is my friend it covers up where my tears have been

Will it always be like this?

As I wake up alone at night
