Forgotten

Walking down a lonely road,
I pass a pond which no one knows.
I crept along to its edge,
And deep within i found the courage.
I dropped my eyes to the black abyss,
The things i saw i wished to miss.
The dreams and wishes of the damned,
Staring back i began to stand.
My body ran from that hellish place,
My mind it stayed in death's embrace.
Nevermore, did i see,
The God i praised, watching me.
