Hellbound

I was Eurydice and you were my Orpheus, But you never cared to look over your shoulder. You fastened your pace and I failed to follow, Left in a land even darker and colder. No music, no colors, no hope, no you, I tried to scream but my lips were on fire. So I swallowed the flames and called out your name. I was a muse with no one to inspire. So I drowned in thick silence, On my bruised lips just one name. For I was still Eurydice, But my Orpheus never came.
