My World

My World Why do you want me to leave? My comfort is the blackness The demons claw at my feet My ears echo the screams of a million souls Fire is my bed at night Sulfur is the smell of my garden I never had a choice My ideas scared you Nightmares crept into your dreams The thought of me scared you Made you question your own reality You drove me into Hell Keeping me away from humanity Keeping your existence safe from me Saving the souls of your children I am here watching you Seeing everything you do I will bide my time in my paradise Burning with my thoughts simmering When the time is right Your faith shaken by questions and doubts I will be there to take you by the hand I will lead you into my world You will see what the darkness offers And your screams will join the others I will just sit back and listen You are in my world now!
