Fire N Brimstone

Fire N Brimstone 

I feel my blood run cold, like 
ice water is being pumped 
through my veins.
Ice chip tears start to form and 
console my now frozen heart
Blood turns black  from fire n 
brimstone
A raven shrieks announcing his 
arrival, he comes on swift 
wings 
And takes everything from me
Tears of ash shine like 
diamonds 
Under the blanket of souls 
shining alongside the moon 
The north star sits stationary 
beckoning lost travelers 
They embrace the shrouds of 
darkness and aimlessly 
surrender 
Forever lost in the night as the 
air turns crisp and chilled 
The ice cold wind nips at their 
heel like ravenous wolves do to 
lambs 
Everything blurs together 
looking the same, it's to late to 
turn back now
The moon calls out singing to 
your fear, it's ominous glow 
caressing your sense of hope 
Circle after circle you can't 
stand your ground, you've lost 
yourself 
Turned round and round
The sky collapses caving in, a 
story board since time began
A snow flake falls marking your 
skin no sound at all just 
breathe again 
Inhale exhale your freezing 
slow until you feel that crushing 
blow.
Those pins and needles of fire n 
brimstone.
