Pendulum Swings in the Darkness

 †††
She existed only in the imagination,
Of the one hundred thousand dead,
The path she walks is a twisted trail,
Paved with honorific denial and frightening dread...
†
She knocks on a door that seems hollow and cold,
And the only answer comes from within,
As the pendulum swings in the darkness,
In the forest it is happening again...
†
The forest secretes its clandestine myths,
A villainous emplacement for all those who prey,
Predicated by the evil inside them,
Another provocation of those they betrayed...
†
Charisma is no longer in the equation,
Caustic intentions is all that she needs,
There is only one resolution here,
The total of how many of them will bleed...
†
Seek not the temptation of a place in the darkness,
Have the knowledge you are already there,
The forest is not for the meek at heart,
You are in the darkness simply because no one cared...
†
No forgiveness for those who question the myth,
The spirits stand alone for your soul,
There is only one way you will leave here,
When you take your last breath you will know...
†
It is not wrong to desire the darkness,
But your walk in the forest has sealed your fate,
You knew there was something inside,
You want to run but it is far too late.
†
The silence of night is shattered by screams,
And suddenly everything has turned red,
Your curiosity brought you here,
And now here you are, on the ground dead...
†
And its over...
