Twisted Game

by Gem   Jan 6, 2007


To a place of nightmarish dreams
Where nothing is ever what it seems
Where your overpowered by the dark
Icy fingers grip your heart
There is no way to escape
The valley's of torture, death and hate
Where you feel like drowning in your tears
As everything becomes your biggest fears
This twisted game needs to be played
You just can't seem to get away
You scream and cry, "Just leave me be!"
But you can't escape this agony
No friendly face to help you now
The end seems near so take a bow
It seems like death is the only way out
A tortured soul that just can't shout
You beg to say your last goodbyes
To just wake up and dry your eyes

(I wrote this with my gorgeous guy! It was our first collab way back to when we'd only just started seeing each other =)

    This is Very heavy.....Some of the facts lately emerging about various prisons around the world, as well as many well-documented far-in-the-past events, make this a poetic spine-tingler, and a heart-breaker, and, a great reminder to pray for the suffering Souls.......well-done...

    for your consideration...line 6....valleys..is simply plural, and needs no apostrophe.....
