The Shadows.

#NightDwellers Slender lines of darkness, The city: a silent place, Shadows overtaking, A villain without a face.

Insomniac

#nightdwellers Shadows play upon the wall, Clockwork hands control the fall, Starlit realm across the hall, Hidden from the minds of all.

Locked In

Trap me, consume me. Please let me go. I scream, I cry. But you've stooped so low. Your walls keep me in, I beg to be free, But for this room, Only you hold the key. Torture me, break me.

Bleeding Out

Breathing liquid, warm & red. Tears & blood shed. Bled into the earth. Thriving & thieving of the hurt. Bleeding life back into the dirt. Lifting the suns rays dusk till dawn.

It Was Late

It was late, Darkness creeping in. He felt something inside himself, Flicker and start to dim. It was great, The fun would now begin.

Bound

Bound by ropes of ice and night, Toxin drugged, put up a fight, Wondered how I'd reach the knife, Bit the gag that bound my life.

Edge Of Fear

Nails scratching at the back of your mind. Ripping yourself away. Scratching at the back of your eyes, Until your blind. Blood running through your veins. Heart beating in your chest.

Into The Night

Cutting a crescent from the night sky. Hanging stars for a soul that's died. Reaping life & bringing it to the skies. Thunder echoes the heavens tastless lies. Lightning lights the blinds ways.

Human Amongst Vampires

I was a human. Only human. Amongst vampires. These vampires. They had a thirst. They wanted that thirst. A taste. To quench that thirst. They wanted me. To feed them. They wanted my blood.

Child Of The Dark

#youngwritershousehold. The empty swing. At the end of the street. Creaking with the breeze. The dark, dark sky. Lit up by a single light. The eerie mist suffocating the street. This scary scene.

Book of matches, Jerry-can of petrol, full, Old sheets, Yellowed papers, Their aged news, forgotten, Smeared print Turned to ashes.

Saddleworth

Bleak and barren moor of ills,. How well you hide your secret still,. All those long and silent years,. You lay there mocking as the tears,. Did flow as if a dam did break,.

Hit Men

If I show you now my hands are clean. So clean they have a slight sheen. I don't do the dirty work. I have people that lurk. My men do the job. They see the peasants sob. Begging for their lives.

Would You Know?

I may love you. I may not. Could you tell if I did. What if I didn't. Would you still know. Would you trust me still. Or would I be another one. Would you call me. Or would you change your number.
