Stealing Security

Reality is the poison spoke by disaster
It takes a gasp of breath and repeats the process
The thoughts of deeds from the past seep in
momentarily all reason slithers out of your mind
Like snakes gliding through locked rooms of your past

Reality....is bliss
The unknown is oh so much sweeter
as rancid words and vulgar thoughts caress your hearts desire
There are no signs to guide you
Only to mock you as you fall into the replica of helplessness

It takes over as things regretted
strive endlessly to become forgotten
A threshold in you mind crumbles as thoughts of further options

sink
    in
       so
           slowly

A last subtle reach for air and sanity withers away
taking the last of hope as the movements become more real to you
This is happening not as game but as truth
The steps are music to your ears
Singing softly of a past mistake that has come back to haunt you
This cant be real you think ,but it is
The wily games of yesterday are now nothing
Lost between the cracks of time
as now becomes more and more deadly

Church bells ring a tune of loss and gain
Sweet redemption is within grasp if you reach
You can't reach though
That obscene little voice telling you you'll make it
Lying there the unsettling stomach acid find you as you breathe
The comfort of lying there is full
yet unsatisfying as they reach for that switch
You are strapped now and damned for life and death
This isn't real
It isn't real
But the cold reality sinks in to late as you realize you will not get out of that chair unless burnt and buried
One chance you plead
One chance to do it over

But the past is done
and you can't redo what has been done with no remorse
The jolt of electricity sets in and the reality hit just to late to pray as they cart the weightless body
though the stone hallways past others
The men screaming at what they had heard
Still believing that it is not real and they will not die
Reality is a joke until
You are lying there and it is to late to accept salvation
As they rock back and forth in there little world
of fake security and hostile dreams
They come ever closer to the reality of it all
That sweetly unreal case of massive anxiety will swim over them

You cannot hide from what is real as
it will eat you alive with a fever of passion you never had
Dream worlds are pleasant as
they set up false pretense of what is going on in the subconscience
A child with his blanket
So wrapped up and safe
But that security blanket will become worn and tattered
as with the need to pretend
and the final moments will last longer
than that lifetime of subtly lying security
As reality seeps slowly but surely into its place in the world
