What do you do
When your own dreams
Haunt you?

It feels like I’m trapped in a hole
With naught but a shovel to comfort me
And I’m trying to dig my way out
But I keep getting deeper
And the earth turns to mud
At my feet as I struggle
And I start to laugh…a maddening sound
That echoes through the night.
Reaching for the sky
I find  only the coldest of memories
Locked and screaming in an ebon sky
Drunk on tears and falling to my knees
I pray to the Goddess below
To release me from my prison
While an angel cries above me
Wondering why she doesn’t see me
I hear music in the distance
Hollow and grim, like rusted steel
And no words can truly tell
The song burning in my chest
Turning all I am to stone
And I am so alone
I am so alone

But then your hands reach for me…
