Black


In death I dream
In death I scream

A twisted soul I sink to hell
Blood upon the water
A twisted soul I sink to hell
My life I'll take in slaughter

Emotions frayed
Thoughts decayed
Each day to me
A fearful time
Darkness
Agony
I dream in mime

I think
I think
I think in rhyme

Confusion
Illusion
It makes of time
A stirring
Blurring
Lethargic crime
That comes and goes
In portions of time
For black is black
A sadness in prime

Black has no goodness
Black has no grace
It scorns my mirror
It scours my face

What I see
Is sadness
What I feel
Is shame

What I think
What I feel
Are thoughts of gloom

What is good is bad
What is happy is sad

Reality in tears
Reality with fears
Shamed and alone
I hide in stone
From people I run
From people I shun
Inward
Inward
Thoughts
Astray
Ghostly
Ghastly
I run away
Inward
Inward
I see no hope
No promise
No beauty
I cannot cope

I am a star in a galaxy
So far away

I shine
But cannot be seen

What good is the candle
When there is no light
What good is life
When there is no sight

Thoughts of serenity
Thoughts of hope
Forsaken in a dream

Dusk to dusk
The answer is clear
Like the dawn of beginnings
Like the morn of endings
I say goodbye

Dust to Dust
Forever
Goodbye
