Emotion
Cold dark forest:
No where to run,
No where to hide,
No where to rest.
Runnin' from the shadow,
The daunting ghost
Forever haunts-
An unconquerable foe.
Thunder crashes through the heart,
Lightning strikes at the soul.
The candle's burning out,
Soon to be in the dark.
Silent screams left unheard:
Through the bleakness of night,
Through the turmoil of emotion-
Emotion all but absurd.
Shades of the night surround,
A heart rapidly beats,
Wonderin' what to do-
To the confines of the mind, always bound.
The blade so real,
Cold against the flesh:
Hands steady and ready,
While wonderin' what to feel.
What will happen?
When shall the inner Hell end?
The torturous chamber
Of a life thought to be fen.
Forever, can't bend,
Lives do break-
And with a smooth hands movement
Death begins to mend.
