in my dreams i see dark skies
carrion birds flock'd in dark clouds
swarming a lone man before my eyes
clawing and tearing at the very last shrouds
i ducked behind cover and continued to stare
as they tore him apart and blood started to rain
down from the clouds that seemed not to care
that the ground already had one big ****** stain
i hid away quickly, my face streaked with tears
as a host of demons came, forming a whole
army of death, my darkest of fears
picking away at the poor man's soul
til nothing was left but his skeletal remains
locked in a death scream, begging for the end
but nobody heard him on the blood soaked plains
there was nothing left for death to send.
i searched about and longed for escape
but was quickly put down, poor pitiful me
this world i was in had only one landscape
death as far as the eye could see
hordes of the undead rose from their graves
eyes red and shambling before my own eyes
now they were death's little slaves
drawn out to my view by the dead man's cries
they looked straight at me, stared, then a shout
calling to them the demons and birds
i knew then and now there was no way out
i was at that point at a loss for words
i scrambled back, in an attempt to flee
but what do you know
they quickly surround me
it looks like this is the end of the show
i fell flat on my back and gazed up into the eyes
of a massive dead dragon, smoke pouring from he
the dead hordes shrieking piercing cries
dying down as they all took a knee
the black dragon bowed and started to speak
"welcome home master, we've missed you so."
i stared in shock and i began to feel weak
"it was such a shame that you needed to go."
they saw i was oblivious of what he spoke
this dream felt so surreal, it couldn't be clearer
it was almost as if i had already woke
one of the demons then brought me a mirror
had i been clutching this scythe this whole time?
had this billowing black cloak always shrouded me so?
did my shadow always dance around me, even with the sunshine?
my fears within were starting to go
as i realized i was home, in hell again.
i was lord Death, i felt it inside
something felt right and i laughed within
i knew there was ne place that life could hide.
ugh, sorry if it sounds bad, it was going so well and then it all got deleted and i had to start over again T_T
