Lost in Reality

Body tensed with pain and anger
Unaware that she's in danger
Lit cigarette hanging from her lips
Silvered here in the moon eclipse
Alone she is in the midnight hour
Sitting where the tall trees tower
Over her, shadows on ivory skin
Hiding secrets of where she's been
Perched on a cracked headstone
So cold and empty her soul had gown

Her gaze now distant, blazing like flames
She is one the darkness now claims
Hate has rooted in her dark dead soul
Raw emotions are in complete control
Head hung down, profound sense of sorrow
Weeping not for yesterday, but for tomorrow
Cloaked all in black, hidden from sight
He seemed to appear out of the night
His bony finger sought for her hand
She was too distraught to understand

Unable to pull away, too numb to care
That she was facing death with an icy stare
His decaying breath sent shiver down her spine
It was no use, lost she was in the lands of time
untied ribbons, of the soul, laced with secrets hid
Hold remnants of the ungodly things that he did
Broken fragments, of her shattered life
Scar her deeper than could any knife
Lost in moments, invading from the past
Where faces and images do not last

She didn't realize that she was letting go
Though the thick chromatic flow
That was draining her of her life
In death's hand she still clutched the knife
That was used to release all of her pain
No longer crying in the pouring rain
Her insatiable hunger for death
Has taken her last breath
No more suffering from his sin
She was finally, at least free within
