Haunted Promise
With invisible stabs to my soul
With quiet whispers to my mind
You keep the night alive
You steal my sleep, you deride my dreams
You show yourself by invisible means
My home is not my own
My body fails through lack of sleep
My mind races to outwit your keep
I see the shadows form in the day
I feel the cold of you near in the night
The presence of your twisted mind
The fear you seek to override my conscious sanity
Do your worst you freak of past life
Kill me now if you own the night
I turn away, I close my eyes
My silent promise you hear tonight
For when I see my last daylight
When life decides to give up the fight
I will locate you in the afterlife
Where even we will stand in the darkest night
You won't escape my vengeance eyes
You won't escape my hatred
For when I eventually die
I will haunt your dead sick mind.
