Constricted Abyss

Poisonous dreams haunt my night sleep And through my veins these demons creep Perilous spells rehearse in my mind Trying to relax me and trying to unwind Cold abyss I stay chained to the wall Punishment for taking an invalid fall Spiders spin webs constricting my heart From way back in my past --- from the start Vampires bite through my darkest fears Blood splattering across shattered mirrors Alone in an abyss I am destined to stay To get out and escape --- there has gotta be a way! Mind boils with survival thoughts Bodies left on all sides of me to rot Washing fears lie over my chest Trying desperately to complete this test I think of my weaknesses and all of my strengths Drowning in a sea of loneliness throughout lakes My happy thoughts of his deep blue eyes No more questions of whens and whys Chains were released --- I feel well! With his thought --- I was banished from Hell
