Meet Fear, Doubt, And Regret

I'll cleave your senses from the light

I've come for a visit now shiver and shake
On rivers of torture your mind I will take

To a valley less traveled shrouded in gloom
Where my minions await you under the moon

Meet Fear, Doubt, and Regret.
They're pleased to make your acquaintance
and yearn to make you fret

They'll tie you up with oily rope
Divest you of joy, pleasure, and hope

For the night is here and their game is at hand
They'll entrap your mind
in steely, taut bands

Do you think you can escape Fear, Doubt, Regret, and me?
In comfortable daylight,
do you feel free?

Under Sun Kings sweet embrace you may feel safe it's true
But freedom is just an illusion,
For I....
Am you

Shadows

Shadows surrounding me So much so that I can't see Dark places that bring nightmares I can't make a sound… I just stare. I walk faster. I've got to run. I want to see the light of the sun.

In My Coffin Of Darkness...

In my coffin of darkness I placed. A castle where the rich lay to rest. The fear that comes from a school test. Fangs as deadly as a sharpened knife. The pain that comes from a slave’s strife.

Black, White And Red.

Black. White. Red. Colours of a joke he recalled, but now there was no laughter, only his own screams as he ran, ran forever through the Hell he'd fallen into. No way out, no way back.
