Poem: "Into the Night" by Jerry Langdon

Into the Night
© Jerry Langdon 2023


My demons march in cadence
To the beat of death and decadence
Foul are the streets of my existence
I repent against my sad resistence
Can't rebel against their insistence
My flag losing flight
Sailing white
Into the night
Into fright
Hell is my beacon of light.
Sad times a falling
Bad days a calling
I am crawling
I am clawing
Still my flag is falling
And my demons rise and sing
I feel the storm's vicious sting
Taste the tears the rains bring
Losing my mind; losing everything
Until in the still of the night I have nothing.
