Digital Art by Ashok , 2005 |
The Skeletons in my cupboard,
They howl my name aloud;
Condemned to their abode,
They hide behind a shroud;
Hollow eyes of madness-
Afraid to face the light;
Crouching in the darkness-
Long shadows of the night.
Is there a way to chase them?
Misdemeanor of every kind;
Light a candle and face them-
Those demons of the mind;
Try and try but will they
Leave without a fight?
All I need is but one ray
That parts the wrong from Right.
