Ive wondered these woods seeking solitude. Day after day, the winter grows colder than death. Safe in my sheets, Each nightmare made real in these crimson decaying dreams. I wonder what could be, to have no repercussions, Just to drift through the dark, Embracing the vacuous void as I empty my heart. I know for sure that this world was not meant to be home for me Reject everything I know, losing sight of my mind, Sanity crumbles to dust My life is suspended by a thread To conjure up the strength to take myself away from this life I curse this wretched wasteland for all of its impurities All I see are demons and unholy thralls Living in this hell we call home My sentence is to spend eternity With this deceitful and destructive plauge There is no warmth, there is no love Only illusive abusive vindictive sadistic Monsters of hell He wandered, into the shack and all on his own or so he had thought. But in his haste he forgot, The terror dwelled outside the shed And not just in the confines of his head Scratching, At the splintered barn door as the boy drew his sheets to his head. Pray for the sweet touch of death, Untainted by pain And the light at the end. Dreaming, fell in a slumber in time, This mistake I have made, to my death I have signed Branded to eternal damnation Contorted into unfathomable, mind bending shapes Skin and bones turn to ash as my soul decomposes The voices never stop, Whispers from the devil himself "On his 13th birthday, Father loomed over his son Stroking his cheek now and edging ever closer Sleep now my child, For i must abide" For next sunrise i'll pay the price, My firstborns virgin blood No remorse for such deeds, not an ounce of regret He plunged the dismal dagger With such force the blade broke in his leg. Bandaged, cauterised, His father grabbed his nape and started dragging His dear son across the barn. Writhing & screaming leave me be, He tied the boys four limbs And set him on his horse with him to swiftly flee, To the ritual grounds, Six rocks would mark the spot for one true god To rise exterminate our realm. Lie on this cold hard slab, I take a look up at the dreary sky and feel the knife enter my chest. How could a man do such deeds, I ask myself each of these solemn nights As I dig my nails into in my eyes. Shut closed one final time. My heart beat falls to a crawl, As death courses through my veins Choke on my every last breath Ive seen the worst and last of life
