The Dark Closet



Dark, dark things dwell in the back of our minds,

some of the most sick and feared things in our lives:

darkness, secrets, horrifying memories that you try

to hold back but accompany you where ever you go.

***

This closet releases terrible things into your mind

that were never meant to be in this world; things

the mind can barely handle; the things that poison

and destroy your mind; dark things that savagely

suck out all the happiness and soul out of you until

you become nothing but a grim, useless pile of

waste, unable to think for yourself; unable to talk

with your own voice; unable to live with your self,

unable to live without horrifying things taking

control of you.

***

And by the time this closet is silenced, is when your

body lay deep beneath the Earth's surface decaying

and rotten, being eaten by maggots; when you are

long dead and the dark things are moved to another

human's mind, ready to destroy another's soul.

minds;(on the first line)
listing darkness as a dark thing is a little pointless.
savagely is nice vocabulary, but in the wrong spot lol
the sentence in the second grouping is a tad long but very nice towards the end.

"And by the time this closet is silenced, is when your"
silenced, your
body is laying deep
and rotting. being eaten away
maggots.
either"have moved" or "are moving"

not my favorite of your work but it isnt bad keep working, please
