In the Morning

Eyes clenched shut
Tears making blazing trails
Down my cheeks
As I lay shivering

I feel the moonlight
Singing its haunting songs
Through the shattered windowpanes
Of my thoughts

The house creeks
And screams in pain
Echoing years
Of haunting memories

Everything will be fine
The cracked fingers of the fingers will recede
The winding shadows will disappear
And my tears will dry

I tell myself
Everything will be fine
In the morning
