Lost in Evil

Confusion drifts through my mind.

Memories I long to leave behind.

Darkness floods through locked gates.

Its insanity striking that I hate.

Thoughts are far from clear

as evil hovers oh so near.

There is no escaping this madness,

no getting beyond this sadness.

Hopelessly drifting through the dark.

Fearing the sound of evil’s bark.

Praying for a light to set me free.

An end to this misery becomes my plea.

As the night approaches, I tremble in fear.

No solace, no peace, only tears.

With all my strength I hold on to hope.

Waiting while walking a thin rope.
