External Sleep

Blood by blood, my unforgiving sins unravel. Each one putting a black dagger through my heart. I do not weep nor prosper with despair. My veins fill with the longing dark poison. As spiders crawl down my body they beg for me to go into an unforgotten sleep. They slowly whispers a lullaby. Shh...they speak as I drift into an unwaking sleep. -Kallie Mason
