My soul is swaying
in the wind.
Dancing freely
in the shadows of sin,
turning franticly
in the musty breeze,
couching
and choaking
as I freeze.
Wrapped in barbed twine,
soffocating
and dieing
as it sways
from the Hanging Tree
begging for death
to set me free.

"There is an alter ego which
dwells in every soul..."
a-alibaster

"I am as I am, nothing more, nothing less,
I am tears of pain, tears of Death.

Great job.  I'm new in Dark Passions, so I haven't read many of everyone's works, but I can't wait to read more from you.  Very nicely done.
