“He will see you now,” the creature growled pointing towards an old oak door. I got up from my seat and made my way in front of it. This was it. It was finally time to make my case. I briefly ran through all my arguments in my mind. I knew I only had one...

Darkness Stories
Something flew past the bedroom window as Shannon closed it for the night. The dark shape went by quickly, so quickly that Shannon could not really see what it was. Startled, she jumped back. “Probably just a bat or bird,” the young woman muttered as she...
Dolls In The Dark
‘The dolls!’ was Emma’s first conscious thought.‘The dolls!’ was Emma’s first conscious thought. She was sure she heard the delicate sounds of pitter-patter across her hardwood floors. With a shaking hand, she grabbed her phone and prayed to God that nothing had touched her. Emma’s fingers slid silent...
Beyond this window the day is bright, but I'm here, surrounded by only Darkness as I walk in the footsteps of those who judge me-- wearing their ignorant stares and whispered innuendos like a shroud. Watching time decay, heart pounding like a fist hammeri...
I was always scared I never knew what direction to go in Fearing what lies ahead and how someone would treat me Scared of love and passion It could be from past experiences Well it is from past experiences but I hate to admit that I’d lik...
Dark Solstice
Fighting dark shadowsI usually appreciate the winter solstice, because I love the mysterious chilly nights and the warm lights that stave it off from inside houses. Warm glasses of tea while gazing into the dark sky by the fire reflecting on life and love and blessings. But t...
Sliding slowly towards the edge of the abyss,My mind begins its descent into the darkness,The pit of hell that constantly lurks out of sight,Like a shadow on the edges of consciousness,A nightmare place of unutterable terror,Where jeering demons await, hu...
Time passes like it always does. But, this time here is different. This time I am alone. Alone, I have never been this alone before. It is not that sense of loneliness one gets when surrounded by people but no one who knows you. This is the loneliness tha...

Another Day, Another Panic Attack
The difficulties of living with anxiety, and how something little can make a huge differenceI was awake at 4am (after dreaming of panicking), worrying about going to Painsburys for 7am (when it tends to be quiet), when it occurred to me that Stressco might already be open! It was, and so I went down there. There were lots of workers doing the on...
Not Alice's Wonderland
A dream I had.Falling into a gaping fissure, darkness swallows me up.Why can't it be Alice's rabbit hole?Her underworld full of wonders, overflowing with psychedelic shrooms, hookah-smoking caterpillars and white rabbit.Not just past memories, devoid of any color, fill...
The bite of the blade shocked her, as it pierced her tender pale flesh. Hesitation had always ruled this moment, as small droplets of blood beaded across her skin. Tonight, she knew her conviction had wavered for the last time. Darkness had long feasted o...
Out Of The Darkness
Things are not always clearer, even after you've stepped out of the darkness.I wake on my left side, shivering from the cold. I fumble for the comforter but come up empty-handed. Annoyed, I roll onto my back thinking I'll have to wrestle it from Ben, my blanket-stealing husband who likes to wrap himself in a cocoon. Instead of fee...

True Love Conquers All
Confessions of a disordered and unruly mindInexorably I can feel myself falling Into the darkness that always lurks, sinister And out of sight, there at the corner of my mind, A place of demons and unnameable horrors, Where my worst nightmares wait, eager to claim my soul. Like a condemned man on...
