Realms of Royalty

Another minute in the madness
and i fear I've gone insane,
All these haunting memories
gnawing at my brain.

I see you in the distance
it seems you cannot hear,
The sorrows slowly sinking now
and I bathe in blackened fear.

Is this a house or prison
in which I've been entombed,
Strange how the sun still shines
on a world so surely doomed.

Promised life producing pain
and my angels run away,
Abandoned on this balcony
its here I shall forever stay.

Sitting in the madness
the air whispers withered dreams,
To slumber in the sadness
in this realm without a queen.
