Looking In

Gripping hand around my neck Cold death lying in wait Shivering alone nervous wreck Feeling the evil, smelling the hate Slipping from sanity Screaming in silence Is this reality It makes no sense Forgotten Alone It tightens Gone Its done Just a pawn It won Lying here Crying Falling down Dieing Dreaming I’m flying Reaching up Trying Searching the world Something lost Something buried Too much I’ve had to carry Turing in Looking deep Where I’ve been Memories I keep Hidden from light Covered in dust Kept out of sight Caked with rust Trembling Key in hand Shivering Barely can stand Twist the key Open the lock Fear What will I see Will it bind Or set me free
