In The Darkness

by

Sekhem Psikor Strecker

Dissipating deep in my memory
My angry tears evaporate; it's clear to me
I don't think I can make it but I know that I can try
So why not back off and leave me here to wither and to die

Cold breath blows here in the darkness
There's a bleeding heart cradling emotions
Deep inside me

Frustrated with pretences that fall down one by one
I have a way to solve the problems that always come
And underneath the starry sky I lay back deep in sleep
For don't you agree that shadows gather and around me they creep

Won't let go of this reliance
On this fear in my heart coz I am reminded
Oh pathetic me!

I fall deep inside it, oh why can't you hear my plea?
This well of emotion
Is swallowing me

Silently falling in my dead dreams
My restless nights filled with demons it seems
Oh and lightly rasping against my skin the voices take their turn
But it's not my fault; I'm swollen now, like paper I burn

Oh I know there is a silence
Deep within my heart for there's no one in there
No one but me

I sink in this silence there's no way out for me
No entrance; no exit - what will become of me?
Deep inside me

NEXT?
