Escape

By ReddropX

Bound, chained, and locked all around
Drowned in the depths of an epitaph mound
Whispers of souls in faint haunting sound
Songs of the dead from deep underground

Angels drop stars from a place that’s unknown
To the place full of dread where you know you’re alone
These stars shinning bright call the dead to the throne
Escaping their fate of a tomb full of bones

    This is a condensed version of something that never really came together. Sometimes less is better. Especially when you suffer writers block.

    This is a very nice image in it's shortness... leaves me longing to see it expanded somewhat though. Ever considered it?
