Trapped
Samantha Sep 2009
It scorches the ground a single spark then starts a raging wave
The dancing flames, of red and yellow, no one can be saved
The heat, the light, the colours change to draw the eye and mind
A maze created, by your fear, an exit you will never find
The chaos and the fright combined create a panicked state
So much resting on one move, a single step can change your fate
The smoke, the ash, the smell of fear is just too much to bear
The dust, the dark, the blazing heat, the desperate need for air
There's nothing you can do or say there's no one even near
You just lie still and hug yourself, surrounded by your fear
Your vision blurs, the colours gone, the silence closes in
The chances to escape are gone, saviours have already been
There's nothing for you now, but death, and it is on its way
No one ever escapes the maze, no matter what they say
The flames consume you; they light the dark, swallowing you in a single bite
What's left of you they'll never find, but no one will forget that night
Fire is the single thing that no one can control
Consuming every living thing, all users pay the toll
A slip, a spark, a flame unwatched can start it all again
This time it will be someone new who just may meet their end

My Prison
Samantha Sep 2009
I am all alone, trapped in this mad place
Only I can cry in my cold prison
No one will ever feel how my heart does race
The Devil himself from hell has risen
Wishing for hope all these many dark days
A guardian angel to save my life
A guide to lead me through this twisted maze
Someone to help me escape my own hell
My thoughts are not happy, my dreams have gone wild
Never shall I be freed from this prison
I have been trapped here since I was a child
My one hero has not yet arisen
Trapped in my own mind 'til end
With my endless moods that never will mend

The Storm
Samantha Sep 2009
Flower petals blow in the wind
The grains of sand are in my bin
The crash of waves against the shore
A roll of thunder I can't ignore
The sky is dark and the clouds are grey
The irds of the water know to stay away
The sky turns bright with a lightning flash
And across the sand my feet do dash
I reach teh cabin on the beach
Run through the door and don't wipe my feet
The sound of thunder at my back
I close the door and turn the latch
i jump on the couch and cover my head
The room is silent as the dead
When I wake up morning has come
The sky is bright and the storm is gone
The air is fresh and the breeze is cool
The see is calm just like a pool
After a storm the world is new
Everyone knows it now I do too

Time
Samantha Sep 2009
Time is that simple thing that never ends
Always continuing on forever
Although there are wounds it may never mend
The pains of them we simply must weather

Time is something that you can never control
Time doesn't stop for you nor will it wait
The effects of time always take their toll
The time you once did love you'll one day hate

Time's everlasting, nothing is older
It remembers our triumphs, failures, tears
It remembers times when we were bolder
It kept us company while facing fears
Time I did once love thee without a care
But now you don't matter, you're hardly there

— The End —
