(London, England. March 28th, 1879 A.D. 3:25 AM) |
|
I opened my eyes and again there was nothing to fill this void |
|
Whichever path I travelled |
|
It lay distant in oblivion |
|
Fled out of whispering winds |
|
To where voices slay |
|
A cobweb of jagged sulfur |
|
Envenomed my benumbed senses |
|
Fled into shimmering doubts |
|
Where sanity is slain |
|
The lights from the bridge they bleed |
|
Creating crimson streams beneath Thames' cold gaze |
|
Enslaving demons shelter within me |
|
Staring at the depth I see |
|
Shapeshifting images of me |
|
Forever these demons shelter within me |
|
Struck by horror, realed with wonder |
|
A face was spun in moonlit mirrors |
|
Swept in fractures, pain inflicted |
|
A crepuscular eve in torment mended |
|
Reflections drowned in mirrors |
|
Memo! ries now mere burdens |
|
Timespawned for a new purpose |
|
Besieged from lurking desires in mind |
|
Psychomaniacal attraction inside |
|
The "I" identity no longer alone |
|
The sense of time forgotten - forlorn |
|
As fate lay dying aghast |
|
A deadbolt to insanity - I slip away. |
|
From these demons who shelter within me. |
|
Fingers now clung mists asunder. |
|
Loathsome winds whispered unleash the fear. |
|
From these demons who shelter within me. |
|
Staring at the depth I see. |
|
Shapeshifting images unleash the fear. |
|
FOREVER MORE. |
