As midnight comes, heart filled with fright
Deep sleep invades with force and might
darkness comes and steals thoughts white
and fills dread mouth with screams
And knuckles white and fists gripped tight
all is consumed and hope so sleight
a future dark a loveless plight
devoid of suns bright beams
As dawn approaches cold and bright
throws off the shackles of the night
and black relents, gives way to light
all just a dream it seems
Yet soul corrupted, rancid blight
all joy is stolen, no delight
to head and heart foul beasts invite
and succumbs to her dreams
Afterwards 
Out of curiosity, where are these prompts coming from?

They come from Twitter mate if you have a look for Salem verse on Twitter you will see them you’ll recognise the pictures I’m using they come from the Twitter feed. They’re definitely worth taking a look at the good fun and I think they suit your darker side
