Resigning To Nightmares

Darkness, darkness all around,
creeping, slithering without a sound,
down the road I see a light,
a light, a light, it burns so bright,
The sky above it holds no stars,
on this light of black sun light,
my bruised body riddled with scars,
my body is not illuminated,
no sight by others, oh so jaded,
I can feel them in my heart,
the scars of a body broke apart,
and sewn together, with so many strips of leather.
To the light I hurry, scurry,
far to the East, far from the beast,
no matter how fast i run or crawl,
the light is travels faster than them all,
In the light is warmth and heat,
rest for my weary feet,
a place to hide from all the rest,
a place to lay my feet to rest.
To the West the sun does rise,
or is it just my tired eyes,
from sea to sea, Is it just a memory,
now light does set on these foul dreams,
my terror split apart at the the seams.

Praying For Daybreak

Hunched in the corner of my room, alone and afraid, screams of terror echo in the hall, the feeding frenzy at nightfall.

Dream Stalker Returns

Night times drawing closer. The fear is now returning. Like an unwanted chauffeur. Driving all your yearnings. He's round every turning. Your best to watch your back.

Long To Dream

Time to sleep but now I know better,. While I sleep you'll haunt me forever,. You grab me with your fingertips,. Your poison I will forever year to sip,. My mind a warped torn place,.

The Path To Hell

Once an angel fell, giving into the depths of a cruel twisted hell. Eyes set, as I come to the end of this road. I remind myself my way to the light has been shown.

Raining Blood

It's raining blood, Gushing down by the bucket Poorly hidden away Tempted just to say 'Fuck it' What use is there in crying.

The Choice: Part Three

The screams reverberate around the air, shattering silence to nothing. I slowly start to back away, ears ringing from the awful crescendo.

Evil

#nightdwellers. Tracing inked creases between split rock,. A slinking dragon over each cracked block,. Onyx scales sleek as the night sky,. Fuel for your spirit he will supply,.
