Poem

I cant seem to move from this place

The scratching down the hall persists

Its as if the dark thing were inching itself closer

Its blood stained teeth digging themselves into the stone

Dragging itself forward

Its gutteral growl 

a deep

droning

rhythm

Screams of promises in exchange for mercy

Bound hands offering up empty deals for either a few more breaths or the sweet embrace of death

Howls of minds 

splintering 

as madness takes hold

These are the lyrics.

The walls know this twisted lullaby all too well

Death rattles are no stranger

And here I lie 

Knees drawn to my chest 

Curled up beneath this blanket of sound

Nightmares whispering 'sweet dreams' as shadows tuck me in

I find comfort here

I find peace

I find something stronger than myself to hold onto

Glass shatters

Break me like that bottle 

Its contents dripping dark like blood over its jagged edges

"Tear me apart and build me back up."

"Do you know what that means?"

A whisper so cold yet my heart warms

"All I know is that I am ready."
