Consumed
My prison is life; I’m trapped in this black hole,
The warden is time; in exchange for freedom it wants my soul,
Throughout the horizon there’s an empty and dark sky,
There is no sun, the moon is pale, the stars are fallen and the earth is dry,
Even though I dress in black, my heart is red,
I spend my nights crying in my stone bed,
I live in the cold so I get so numb to ease the pain,
To camouflage my black tears I entwined with the rain,
I walk alone with my head down,
To hide my grieve and my frown,
I’m so tired that I can’t think,
My crying eyes are exhausted that I can’t blink,
Everything I had and loved stayed in the past,
I stared through my review mirror and nothing came back,
Leaving me alone to face a tomorrow,
I’ve hidden my untold secrets deep within the shadows,
Don’t know where I’m going and don’t where I’ve been,
My heart always in pain from all the emptiness,
Every day and every night from dusk to dawn,
Breathing this curse which I am bound,
I got to face my inner demons, fight and conquer them,
Before it conquers me and it becomes my end,
Every day is a battle, I fight and I fight so hard just to be,
But little by little it’s destroying me from within,
I’m afraid to look in the mirror; I ‘m afraid to stare at someone’s eyes,
Fatigue and sadness will be insight,
My dreams are getting darker that I wake up with a scream,
That my eyes can’t see nothing and no one hears me,
I feel I’m buried alive because it’s hard for me to breath,
I lie within myself trying to find my inner peace,
I scream out my pain but I get no reply,
I hear only my echo telling goodbye,
So with a blade on my wrist “goodbye” I inscribe,
Dripping away just like an hour glass running out of time,
Waiting for my salvation to come and light me safe,
Watching the dark sky slowly camouflaging me away,
For so long there has been no light in my amidst only darkness ray,
That I was consumed by it completely…..So darkness I became,
The warden is time; in exchange for freedom it wants my soul,
Throughout the horizon there’s an empty and dark sky,
There is no sun, the moon is pale, the stars are fallen and the earth is dry,
Even though I dress in black, my heart is red,
I spend my nights crying in my stone bed,
I live in the cold so I get so numb to ease the pain,
To camouflage my black tears I entwined with the rain,
I walk alone with my head down,
