What is this place?

Darkness surrounds me
Tortured screams
Blood seeping across the floor

What is this place?

The voices in my head
Or are they around me
Scream in twisted, screeching chorus

What is this place?

My senses strain
My pupils dilated
Straining to find....what?

What is this place?

My skin sears
A line of pain
The snap of a single tail

What is this place?

Two more lines of pain
They join the first
Before subsiding into a dull throb

What is this place?

The rush of endorphins
The reason I came here
My mind dulls
Yet my senses sharpen

What is this place?

The tortured screams
Of others so far gone
Mingled with pleasure and pain

What is this place?

My eyes
Realesed from their cloth prision
Begin to adjust

What is this place?

The lines of blood
Only water
The darkness
Only temporary
And the pain?
Only pleasure.
