Within it's Hands

by Broken   Feb 1, 2005


Pushed farther down
These old rickety steps
Plunged deeper through dark
I struggled for a few breaths

My face hit the cement
And I barely see the figure
A twisted heart, full of sin
My own personal grave digger

Clothed in black
Covered with hate
Within it's hands
My mangled fate

Can't see it's face
My vision is blurred
"One day you'll pay!"
The evil voice purred

Terror spread through me
As I let it continue
"For the pain you caused,
And the sickness in you!"

I closed my eyes
Prayed this would end
Emotion can be fixed
But life I cannot mend

Mumbled words
Of hate and sorrow
Poured from it's lips
There'd be no tomorrow

Through tears and pleads
I questioned it's identity
It gave a cold reply
"You killed the old me"

Daring to open one eye
I could finally see
That evil figure
Was really me...

    Beautiful, but I hate feeling that you have all of this hurt inside of you. Just remember, even if everything seems bad and your fault, people still love you, like me and God, and will always love you even after you're gone! *hug* Hope you see that, lots of luv
