Haunted Woods

†††
Chained by an evil dominance,
Hear the wicked plead their cries,
Shadowed memories scorn the darkness,
Haunts the chilling way they died...
†
Enticement lured them deep inside,
The demons carnal grip,
Who placed the longing kiss of death,
Eloquently upon their tainted lips...
†
Illuminated under the hallowed moon,
Reminiscent of those who have passed,
Powerless victims of an enchanted stroll.
Upon the dark and winding path...
†
Distorted by shattered illusions cast,
Condemned by their sadistic ways,
Never knowing all they lived for,
Would be sacrificed that day...
†
I search for vindication,
Even though it has been years,
Thoughts bring back the shocking memories,
That brings back all the fears...
†
Suppressed inside for quite some time,
This fear dominates my life,
It began with a walk in the forest,
Which is precisely where they died...
†
They had walked the path in darkness,
In an attempt to expel the myth,
That the Ferries lived in the tree tops,
And could kill you with their  kiss...
†
The myth they tried to exonerate,
Turned their laughter into frowns,
And left them bleeding on the path,
Where the Ferries took them down...
†
So close your eyes and share my dreams,
As the shadows circle my bed,
To come no more and never return,
They tried to show you but now their dead...
