all youths heroes now are dead

youths heroes
now are dead.
+++++++++++++

as a kid
i
used to hide
for

hours in the
closet of my
room;

wondering what
heroes did.

(to defeat Youths
Inner
Gloom.)

+

those heavy
footsteps...

were they
real?....

I hold my
whispering
breath!

but only
Death
seems real.

(so perhaps
its better not
to feel.)

+

twas often
also
moonlight screamed,

into
the darkness of
lost
memory;

till
Life Became
a
Thing I'd
Dreamed!

(with true
self The Nightmare
Enemy.)

+

Those
Angels...

were they
ever
there?

The Inner
Good
Within Me
Strangles!!

(and I breath the
evil air.)

+

as a man
i
choose to
hide,

in the
closet of
my
Head,

with
none in
whom

i can confide.

(youths
heroes now
are dead.)
