Unrest

My soul cries deep within me
Will ever it find some peace
What is it that it longs for
Why can I just not sleep
The claws of eagles grab me
And take me to the sky
Their talons rip into me
Don’t hear my body cry
Dungeons and the blackness
Hang to me as friends
My mind screams out a warning
Is this the way to end.
