Beyond the Living

Beyond the living.

Sadness crawls.

Behind the blackest 
hole.

Drowns  sorrow.

Where the dead 
memories fades to grey.

Thunders the end to 
time.

Which will be mine.

I am surrounded.

By six sided solar 
spirals.

Which wants in.

I do know.

Where the story begins.

From inside.

Where my soul hides.

In the coldest part next 
to my heart.

There is no place left for 
pride.

My pain threatens my 
sanity.

Dark emotions feeds of 
vanity.

Agony succumbs.

Murderous thoughts 
start to vanish.

Black shadows are 
shading me.

Ice cold shivers sliver 
down my spine.

Rusted metal infused by 
bones.
 
The touch to her arrival.

I can feel her claws on 
my skin.

I am being held.

I am in the arms of 
Death.

She smells.

Lovely.

Fragranced with decay.

She smells fresh from 
the dead.

Vertigo is the cause.

Of my blindness.

Blood flows rivers down 
my arms.

Lifeless hand free the 
blade.

Silver taints the red 
riddled floor.

She whispers into my 
ear.

She wants me to follow 
her.

Where the screaming 
starts.

Where nothing ever 
stops.

I refuse.

But I do as she say.
