Welcome to My Nightmare

talking, doesn't do any good
crying, makes for headaches
sleep, an open window
for a long buried demon,
who  scared the future


the word, no
falls on deaf ears
scream, and it's devoured
like an aphrodisiac
claw at the putrid flesh
till your senses are
consumed by the rancid
stench
and your blood filled ears
drown out the demonic
rantings

fall onto the shattered
glass heart which
you carried so gently
while your hair is used
as a noose
and your limbs are
ripped apart so your
soul can be aborted
by the serpents tongue

Then, you can say
you've slept in my bed.




"...I am a river in winter,
quiet in the eyes of most
but deep,
swift and full of life
to one, lucky enough to fall through the ice.
