demons screamin, giving chase thru a pitch maze
paranoid to twisting shadows, the only sight in the haze
choked lungs, consumed with Hades dark angels breathe
mouth open to curse, black blood spews from my souls depth
they turn on me, stabbed in the back by my own spine
darkness embodied with my former self intertwined
still with haste memories flood of my closed casket past
fastened to a coffin, unable to loosen the cast
self rightousness flows from the throat of some preacher man
my girls tears landing on my chest, yet I cannot reach her hand
lowered into the earth I've hated all my crooked life
fools prayin over my hopeless soul but justice is rife
coffen closed, darkness welcomes me with only contempt
it mocks my belated and vein attempts to repent
each spade of dirt like the convictions of the dark judge
only my mind hears my screams, my voice does not budge
tears fill my eyes yet on my face there seems drought
higher state of conciousness looking for some way out
drifting to a stop as i behold a ferocious sight
witness and imminent victim to the king of the night

I'm with Greeny on this one...it was a good write but it leaves me wondering a lot. I guess that's one thing about reading poems...you don't always know what circumstances people are writing under. this reminds me of Chop Suey from S.O.D. I like. but hey, it would be kool if you could tell the story behind this, even if you just e-mail me, lol. anywho, later.
