Dark Angel (Part 2) Escape

by HJ   Sep 24, 2004


The thought of you haunt's me, as I lay my tiring head.
Provoking fear within my soul, as I toss and turn in bed.

This place, my dreams, you will always find me. Taking hold, controlling my reality.

Fighting to stay awake. My eyes grow heavier, with every breath I take.

I fall deep, loosing control again, the sky falls into paradise.
Am I going insane?

For when I took that sip from your blood stained cup.
Within my silence I'd changed the destiny of my luck.

It leaves me numb inside I think of you. I knew nothing of what you would or could do.

Loved you once, gravity pulled us together, you and I. The night is young, everything about you, just a lie.

You were the fuel to light my fiery flames. So help me now, break me loose from these chains.

As my eyelids begin to close once more. I see shadowy wings droop hovering before me, above the floor.

Try to think pleasant thoughts!

I'm surrounded by water, I'm in a boat. I shiver, the cool of the evening air tickles against my throat.

A paralysed silence in my room tonight. Green eyes blazing with lurid fire. No escape from this fight.

Divine power you hold over me. But tonight, just let me sleep, let me be.

I awake to the chorus of church bells on a cold morning's mist.
Daylight has come, harbouring me from the darkness of your wickedness.

Thank you for letting me be last night. I know it was hard, but what you did was right.

I start this brand new day so nice. Your reward, me, your sacrifice.

    It was a good piece, but I didn't really care for the style (structure). I do like the writing, the words and the fact that it was told in story format.
