Spectre

Spectre

Scalpel sharp silent screams 
Piercing, puncturing
Cutting neatly
Through tracing paper thin
Fabric dreams...

Gunmetal grey shades of emotion 
A haunting spectre
In moonlit hours
A glint of blade flashes
A pale blue angel dashes

She's the heroine, the hero
Ensuring I catch my train of thought...

Rescuing repetitively
The secret to mental longevity
Depression nearly conquered me...

She's both my sheild 
And my sword...

I'm glad you enjoyed the poem. It feels like a while since I've been able to think and write clearly.

Take care  - Syd

Our Dearest Syd,

Very powerful write, our friend.  It takes the readers to their very cores.  

The spectre kneels down
His ride searches for freedom
From all his demons

Peace and Love,
