Drowning In Reality

sitting alone inside your box..

where all your pain and disillusionment rots

breaking free of the intense emotions

gasping..

choking..

deep inside this ocean

struggling. .

fighting..

becoming a desperate soul. . .

eyes now dark as coal..

So very empty and cold..

complacent in life..

revelling in everyday strife..

your pain,I'll devour..

evil, twisted, haunting...

soured..

forever in this wasteland 

we call life......
