Tell me things I want to hear,
Whisper sweet nothings in my ear.
Voice like velvet, smooth and fine,
Ask me softly "Will you be mine?"
Cradle me close hold on tight,
This is the day its time for flight.
Into the unknown come on lets go,
Jumping down the rabbit hole.
Tumbling, jumbling,oh what fun!
And to think our adventure's only begun.
Come with me and you'll see,
All the possibilities.
Break these chains, come be free,
Away from our old enemies.
Share with me all you are,
Take a chance we'll go far.

Cravings.

Mind racing, thoughts pacing, craving all you can't have.
Nonstop motion within this skull, your restless soul pushing its bounds.
Need eats these ties that bind.
All that was natural, now foreign.
Your world has flipped, meanings lost.
Pain floods the senses promising to crush.
Waves of anger, waves of hate flood the shores.
Anguish infests every thought, as tears flow silently filling empty promises.
Elephants in the room close in squandering hopes, extinguishing dreams, and smothering happiness.
Lights dimming this feeling beginning.
Fears flourish in the night, sleep evades, nightmares enclose.
Silent screams fill the air, as panic quickens this aching heart.
Have they seen what lies behind these cold eyes?
Mind Racing, Thoughts Pacing.

Night

Wails of sorrow fill the air,
darkness devours courage that was there.
Your painted face begins to run,
and you are left quite undone.
In the raw for all to see,
plain as day is misery.
As you weep and cry,
you ask for one last goodbye.
Perhaps a hug, maybe a kiss,
from the loved one that you miss.
The heart has broken,
from those lost words spoken.
Gone away from here,
still held dear.
Loved ever more,
tears begin to pour.
Alone in the night,
Left to the fright.

The Call

Pain and heartache in every pore.
No longer able to see the light.
Your soul cries for an escape, scrambling from the hurt that floods your heart.
The devil calls offering relief.
Your soul, that's his only request.
Give up this grief filled life for a new one.
Broken promises fill from his lips as you are lured slowly in.
Unable to refuse his offer you pass on your pain.
The horrible ache leaves your body and finds a fresh host.
As you sigh your last breath, hope returns for what lies beyond.
Sweet relief floods your senses and its over.
The devil greedily takes your hand and leads you on.
Suffering hangs over your body waiting to fest on new life.
Happy to find a new home when you are discovered.
A darkness falls as the word spreads....
You are dead.
