Corruption

by Briana   Apr 19, 2006


Uncertainty caves in
Skin chilled with fear
Each second is prolonged
The scene around unclear

Then I appear
I'm the only thing in your field of view
Everything else blurs out of the way
I'm your worst nightmare

A gentle breeze turns into a misty fog
The beaming sun to an absent sky
I'm the only sound lingering here
My voice gradually amplifies

You feel like you want to scream
But no sound leaves your mouth
You wish to escape
But there's no way out

Eventually you'll get accustomed to my presence
That's all you'll ever know
You'll learn to conceal your internal pain
Never allow your emotions to show

At this moment you fail to realize
That you're caught in my trap
I've captured you in my binding web
You're consumed in all that I am

You assume that these thoughts are your own
But I've brainwashed you from the start
So now my thoughts and yours
Intertwine together as a whole

I delight in your suffering
And continue to manipulate your mind
And just when you think that the worst is through
I'm not too far behind

I'm stalking you like prey
Drenching you in deceit
Seems in won't be long before
You witness your defeat
