A Dead Soul Born

Walk through nature's dwelling Hide from obscure trees listening Winter brings gloom, brings remnants of our shadows. Twilight casts shadows on those who espouse their fate. Ice pricks necks like knives, leaving shards of cadaverous skin. Tears spout from my eyes, shunned from mankind's den. Gathering sunlight, gathering night's frigid air. Sharpen wood to impale myself, no more will words torment. Floating downward, sleep eternal. Born from wombs of cruelty Leaves escape to be alone. Rope suffocates short breaths An angel screams to take me home. Try to find solace in heavenly stars, under skies above Submerge beneath the cold river's tongue My soul died a martyr for pain Golden rays of soft yellow light Accentuate the harsh, stinging rain. Snow starts to fall My tears start to freeze Nature brings forth her cold winter's breeze My heart has been shunned, I fail to care Nary are those whose dreams I do share Waking from eternal slumber To find my wrists slit open Demons chase behind the sun Dreaming from another's body, My life eradicated My nightmares have just begun.
