9 Days, 9 Hours, 9 Minutes

by Beauty Within These Pages of Darkness   Sep 2, 2007


Nine days, you have lied to me, nine days and it is gone,
Nine days, I am sorry, nine days have just begun.
Nine days, you have lied there, nine days ago today,
Nine days, not yet over, nine days that have no owner.
Nine days, he came to me, nine days and where were you?
Nine days, almost over, nine days the storm will brew.
Nine days, you have not left me, nine days for you to see,
Nine days for you to swallow, nine days and more to follow.
Nine days, and you are empty, nine days for us to see,
Nine days, and are you dying? nine days and you will flee.
Nine days is now nine hours, nine hours for us to cry,
Nine hours is now nine minutes, nine minutes till we die.
Nine days is slowly falling, nine days into the hole,
Nine days and it is over, nine days now has your soul.
