Poetry

Appearance so different, so reminiscent, so far changed
Lips become more sealed, become more quiet; rearranged
Protecting those below me; accepting higher blame
Mind so undecided, is this truth or are these games?
In the silence, standing still; listening closely and
you’ll hear
Hiding in the darkness, don’t dare to breath; it’s far
too near
Which way is out; which way might I escape this misery?
All doors have no end, damn this sick mystery
Which way is out; where might I be put to sleep?
I can’t take this type of torment; I’m nearly at my peak
Holding on, but their casing me; I’m in a deadly dream
Hold me, hold me; my love has slowly turned on me
Do you hear the screams; the killing of their innocence?
Wanting me next; closing off every entrance
Not I, no, no, no; not I, no, no, no
Chain me in a place, so crazy I will grow
I shall escape; make no memories in this place
Don’t look in my eyes; you’ll see the wisdom in my face
With my last match, I’ve struck this dark with fire
Burning to the ground, my life; my thoughts were dire
