Hallowed Hallways

A hallowed hall of darkness cold breeze fills the air Slowly creeping forward shadows on the wall A glimpse of light reveals blood soaked floors Corpse like figures crawling bodies twisted Mouths sewn tight no words just moans Deafening screams shatter dusty mirrors Tattered curtains line the windows Creaky panels line the walkway Dangling ropes adorn the ceiling Dark figure standing in the doorway Arm extends fingers call me to him Relentless whispers call my name Involuntary steps drawing me closer Come with me into the darkness The face remains to far to see The air has thickened became so cold I try to focus my vision clouded Chest feels heavy it’s hard to breath I can feel his touch it chills my bones Hands touch my face eyes are bleeding I try to scream my mouth sewn tight Doors slammed behind me I’m all alone His face a mystery I am his captive Now a corpse body twisted I walk the hallways Of my mind
