Untitled Nightmare

by Illusion   Nov 7, 2005


Silently at night I wait
For my soul to meet its fate
Outside the window the angels sing
Inside my head the devil's voice begins to ring
Thick darkness begins to fill the room
Though I'm prepared to meet thy doom
Dampness seems to fill the air
Move, even run- should I dare?
Pulling the covers over my head
I hate this life, I'm better off dead
Hands trembling, my body begins to shake
Trapped within a dream, everything is really fake
Dead to the world
Invisible to the eye
Do you think anyone would care
If I were to die?

    Dark and powerful write. Very vivid words used here, makes it kind of more solid. The lines keep me going and going and hoping for more.
