Thorns
Something inside me is calling
Some things are caught on thorny thoughts
Sometimes I radiate and deviate as thoughts linger
I bleed icy dreams
Dark as ink, silent n deep, all seep
Drowning out in the harsh light
Trying to think, trying to remember
Exposing my raw unnerved imagery
Breaking many fragile artifacts
Of odd n ornate, objet d'art
Little things scurrying, to n fro
Deep into the corners of my little black boxes
Visions soar into my jagged sight
Tangling on thoughts like thorns of a rose
Watching the cruciforms, repose
Calling me from afar
Deep past my horizons
The breaking of my spine, my brittle bones
All wrapped in iron blades
Feel my cruciform, casting shadows forlorn
Bleeding my deepest fears, tears sear
Here n there, I feel something breaking
I feel it fading, isolating, radiating
Expanding deep into my darkest parts
Hollow is thy heart
Ice clings to my insides
The unknown trapped in spines n twine
Calling me deep within the walls of sleep
My visions are caught on jagged thoughts
Soaring into the undefined night
Something inside me is screaming
Someone is caught in my inner twine
I break into nothing, drifting into inner void
I feel myself resonate, detonate
Drifting away, dying each day, trying to avoid...
I see all beyond my second sight
I bleed icy imagery
Dark as ink, silence seeps
Drowning out all in the harsh night
