Crawl on your belly
Quietly on your belly
Through the jungle
That is now your mind
Rocks scrape at your hand
And thorns rip at your back
But as the blood wells up
Force your screaming down
‘Cause if you make a noise
They’ll know you’re there
Oh yes, They’ll see you’re there
They dwell in the shadows
At the edge of your consciousness
Yet They’re right before your eyes
Taunting, taunting
With those echoing voices
That bang inside your skull
They will you to show
But stay where you are
And wait and watch
Because, sometimes, you can see Them
In the flash of lightening
That comes from the storm
That is now your mind
You can see Their silhouettes
Turning and grinning
Poison running from Their eyes
And blood bubbling down their chins
Their fangs are sharp
And so are their claws
But not nearly as pointed
As Their rapier wit
They know just what to do
What to do to make you howl
Making you scream
Until your throat’s torn out
But please don’t scream
Please don’t cry
Because if They find you
Then you will surely burn
And then, you’ll die
From the torture of dread
As Their icy fingers close
Close right around your heart
And the frost of Their souls
It rolls of in waves
If They had souls to begin with
Clench your fist
And the blood runs over
Drip, drip, drip to the ground
Still stay quiet
Just turn around and slink away
And darling, pray
Oh please, my darling, pray
Pray that you will wake
And that the hell that’s inside me
Isn’t inside you too
Um... a little darker that what I normally write but, when you gotta write, you gotta write. Heh, it just so happens that this is what I came up with.
Enjoy?

This is absolutely fantastic! It kind of reminded me of Edgar Allan Poe's stuff. Love it! :D
