Constricted Abyss
Poisonous dreams haunt my night sleep
And through my veins these demons creep
Perilous spells rehearse in my mind
Trying to relax me and trying to unwind
Cold abyss I stay chained to the wall
Punishment for taking an invalid fall
Spiders spin webs constricting my heart
From way back in my past --- from the start
Vampires bite through my darkest fears
Blood splattering across shattered mirrors
Alone in an abyss I am destined to stay
To get out and escape --- there has gotta be a way!
Mind boils with survival thoughts
Bodies left on all sides of me to rot
Washing fears lie over my chest
Trying desperately to complete this test
I think of my weaknesses and all of my strengths
Drowning in a sea of loneliness throughout lakes
My happy thoughts of his deep blue eyes
No more questions of whens and whys
Chains were released --- I feel well!
With his thought --- I was banished from Hell
