Deadly Little Games
I've fallen,
I've faded,
I've become nothing
More than a memory,
Nothing more than dust.
Your smile,
Your touch,
Bring back too
Much pain
For my feeble mind to bear.
My wish
Is to leave.
Never to be
Forced to pretend
To love this lie.
I see what I've
Done cannot be fixed.
So excuse me while I leave you
To scream at the endless
Nightmares in your mind.
I know that they haunt your dreams.
I know that you fear them.
Don't.
Allow them to control you
And take away your pain.
They want to play a game.
Want you to play along.
Go, join them.
Enjoy each other's pain.
Flourish in misery.
Play by the rules.
Don't allow the to break,
For I'm the one who enforces
The rules.
Pain and suffering is my game.
Will you allow the
Darkness to swallow you whole?
Or
Piece by piece?
Please choose carefully.
