A poem

[thedrill]

Greetings all. I look forward to reading and helping fellow poets on the site. Here is one of mine I hope to refine:

sometimes the darkness
has no end.
what has me trapped
is not the night
nor the lack of light
- it’s my mind in a bend -
laying on a bed
in a hot stinking stifling
hospital room
no not the night at all
but some twinge of pain
needles and tubes
in my veins
not the night
nor lack of light.
