Shattered dreams lay discarded and broken
Nightmares sheathing in dark thick black clouds curling into the mind
Terror like a haze manipulating the soul, blackening the heart
Eyes misted with salty diamond tears
Ashen flesh
Hollow pale emerald eyes reflect the cruel agonising pain
Rasping breath sours the humid air
Head spins in confusion as time ticks away
Fragile body lays exhausted in the filthy broken house
Tore black and white photos littered the dim room
Dusty cobwebs stick to the dirty cloudy windowpane
Ashes fill the once beautiful fireplace
The flickering candle splutters and dies casting the room into darkness

All I see is darkness, Where can I find light. Here it is full of bleakness, I want to also smile bright. Maybe I was cursed, Did I prick my finger. I hid tears ready to burst, Your remarks linger.

Alone, in the darkness, And there's nowhere to hide. Can't tell if I'm conscious, I think I'm out of pride. Empty is my vision, Hiding forever, black. I need a decision, Wait... What's behind my back.

The Voices
A thousand distorted voices Trapped behind the glass. Taking a moment to fleet, Letting the pain pass. A thousand distorted voices Shouting to me as one.

You seem to know. All the right words to say. Make me feel human once more. As if I belong. But I know it is fake. That you don't mean the words you say. How could you. After all I don't deserve it.
