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