Buried Alive

Claustrophobia

*dum-dum: Sound of a heart beat

What is this?
why are they moving.
the keep getting to close
what is it seeking?


      dum-dum

Get away!
I'm so weak,
in this small place
I fall on my knees,
and pretend to pray.


                          dum-dum
Noo! What's coming down!
Is that the roof.
I'm all alone
in this elevated room,
on floor,
unable to move!



dum-dum


It's coming down,
the soil!

         dum-dum


I can't breathe!
                   dum-dum

is this my end I perceive?!

                            dum-dum

This contorting body,
       trembling on the floor

                    dum-dum

I can't control my movement
       it's the core

           dum     -     dum

and now

dum  -  dum


alone I burst

dum   -    dum

My demons,

                                      dum
        my curse
                                dum
Then again, it's
              Dum
       ashes to ashes
          dum
and from dust

dum

   to dust...

silence
