Living In the Shadow of His Lies

I scream, but no sound Trapped inside of my mind This person is not me This is a shell of someone I used to be The emptyness of lonleyness, My fear, disquised as a friend. A long forgotten friend, I prayed would never return The darkness has come to destroy me, here to try again I want to breakfree, to run and hide I struggle against the forces of darkness, only to find myself falling backwords, into the hands of the enemy I walk behind him, living in the shadow of his lies THE voice inside my mind says, YES! I allow myself to fall into the familiar hands of emptyness The abyss of nothingness, wraps its wrath around me and beckons me home.
