Endless morbid journal
Nameless herbal tea
Dream catcher sways left and right
Trying to repress
What comes
When I close my eyes
Now I lay me down to sleepSadistic smile
"I missed you."
Clinging to my pillow
I beg my dazing eyes
Not to let you have me
Fighting a motionless fight
I pray my soul is mine to keep"I won't hurt you…"
Hiding behind a closet door
Three breaths per minute
"Did you miss me too?"
Endless screaming
Eyes forced shut
Guard me while I sleep tonightSilver steak knife
Carving sadistic calligraphy
Retracing open wounds
Carved by your memory
"It's not like I meant to."
Lulling me through dementia
And wake me safe at dawn's first lightPush the limits
Of forced immunity
Laughing through every price
I pay for being attractive in your eyes
Sleeping or waking
Never escaping
If I should die before I wake
Someone will inform you
And you'll sigh angrily
Laugh, as you always do
Find a new experiment
And you'll never remember me
A dispensable toy
I pray the Lord my soul to takeDreams don't kill
But watching you, wide awake
Recalling what I saw
In surreal dimensions
Unknown to you
Just might
