Life Is Horror

First artwork I'm putting up here on Hive, hope y'all like it.
I think the best way to put this one is that it's just about... paranoia. When you surround yourself with horror media- horror games, scary movies, books of monsters, and all that, and you can no longer separate delusion from reality. And nothing feels safe anymore. Life is horror...

This is actually a redraw of an older artwork of mine, that I randomly drew about a year ago. Not sure why I've been in this sort of nostalgic mood lately, going through old stuff- it's just what came to me

Here's the original version, for comparison- admittedly, this older one, I was trying to make more minimalistic, which shows:

No,    I can't do  this, I can't       take
 this anymore.    I came all the     way
back to    the    Entrance.  The door     is
           locked     and it has a      keyhole       in the
shape of  a  heart  and I don't have a
key        and I   tried    to bash it down and     
it doesn't budge   and I hurt and the  
              world outside of the windows is
          just a pitch white               void.
I am dreaming     and I can't wake up.   
I bash my head against the wall and
       the       pain is     real 
     and I    can't   
    wake    up.
     I am in pain.      I am in fear.
    I am in misery. I am in horror.
 My life is horror.

    Thank youuu! I really liked the writing in the old one too, but there just wasn't any space for it anymore. And the poem's really not as serious as it seems.
