Running
trying to hide
in the dark night
from it.

It chases me
through the night
for what reason
I am lost

Fatigued
stumbling over a rock
I fall
Thud.

Panic, Fear
Fear for my life
The Howls
Oh the blood chilling howls

Closer it comes
oh so very close
paralyzed
with unutterable fear

I see it...
Cackling
A look of
Conquest within it’s eyes

The Moon Becomes Eclipsed
It moves toward me
Quivering, my soul
shrieks in terror

It Plunges Deep
Within my being
Overwhelming Pain
Beyond what the body can take

My Soul, it’s target
Screams with force
Flooding the Astral Plane
Transcending the folds of time

Deathmatch.
The Heart is ripped
open, exposing
it’s secrets

The Soul; pinned
Forced to feel every
excruciating ounce of pain

Plunging into the core
,like a drill,
Searching
neglecting the screams of agony

Tortured
at the brink
of death
It reveals itself

The dark cloak fading
Light radiating outward
It is my conscience
Purging the evil,
starting anew and
erasing the past

humming madly
filling my head
with blood
and sorrow
and dread
the executioner's song."

wow..this is full of chilling imagery...
you expressed your thoughts with power in this..very dark and eerie...way cool too
great job...jm

 Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules
Do you care what is thought by others about you
If this day is all that is promised to you
Do you live for the present, the future the past...

 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

Oh to start anew, what a glorious sight.
loved the fast pace.
Joel.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
