Where Demons Play (Extended)

By Whisper



The shadows surround me
and take me away
to a place in the darkness
where the demons play
they give me hope
and tell me lies
pulling the covers over my eyes
they play me, betray me
and still I laugh
feeling every ounce of the devils wrath
my mind is broken
and dreams are gone
I wish someone would
tell me what's going on
I don't deserve this
I know it's true
I tried to stop it
but what could I do
I was ripped and torn
like a fucking rag-doll
holding myself and
curling into a ball
my tears flow freely
as do my sobs
as the shadows race towards me
like an angry mob
grinning and snarling
like a pack of beasts
racing towards a long awaited feast

    flawless rhyme. maybe "a fucking rag-doll" and "a ball" is a weak point but it depends .. would have to hear you say it. It is all in the mouth lalala--hrhr. It is, fuck silent black and white dp poetry. This is not either. Thank you for this free and somewhat safe journey.

    I "dig it" ;) how it is as well... There is something with the end, in my head makes me want to know if you allowed the feast to begin. Scholar
