Hear Me
I am surrounded by the night
Dark and foreboding, crushing me,
Tempting me to run, to break away
Every whisper is a scream
Pounding in my brain
Every star is a pinpoint of pain
Scattered across the sky like
Shining reminders of the past
Howls of wolves scream my rage
Sending shivers through my spine
An overwhelming urge to scream
Cripples me, I cry out into the night
Yet no one hears my screams
My chest pounds, I break into a cold sweat
I run like a madman, no direction
No purpose except escape.
Hear me! Help me! I stumble and fall
Down into darkness, down into quiet
Down into sweet methodical madness.
If I have already sent this one I appologize. Here’s a replacement.
Silver beams of moonlight cast below
The time has come for me to go.
I spread my wings and soar up high
Never contemplating days gone by.
Above the earth my soul is free
I break apart from the other me.
Through green and silver veils I soar
Searching for the unlocked door.
