Whispers, images, flashes
Haunting
Deep waters move rapidly

Dream or memory
Confusion
Fevered imagination plotting

Insanity beckons
Looming
Shadows of reality or shades of imagination

Frame after frame
Clicking
Taunts fast and clear

Screaming conscience
Shrill
Mind mirrors shatter

Shards fall
Cutting
Tearing the delicate foundation

Death breathes close
Stop!
It does
