Confined

In the silence they come for me
Witnesses to my crimes
Dragging me away in chains
Bound countless times

They take me into the void
And pin me down with force
I scream and cry and struggle
Until my voice is hoarse

My body is covered in bruises
My flesh is torn by their will
The darkness seeps into my bones
A creeping, crawling chill

This never ending torment
Is wrecking havoc on my mind
I struggle to keep my wits together
In this cage I am confined

Writhing in this emptiness
My soul shuddering in the void
I feel the darkness taking me
As my hope is utterly destroyed

I like the hopeless turn of this one.
Let me out to see a cold dark sun.
Life in a cage is lacking hope.
In this darkness I must cope.

This is a good goth poem that deserves to be read again.
