House of misery

by Tracy D Rollings   Jun 14, 2007


Tried to be the kid
that you wanted me to be
but that was just something
that my heart can't see.

The loneliness within me
takes a heavy toll
burning never ending flames
in my empty soul.

As the little demons
all come out tonight
eating into my flesh
blocking out all light.

Dark is coming fast
the pain is here
there's nothing left now
but wait on fear.

Hear haunting souls cry
they moan out loud
for alone I stand
try to be proud.

The master is coming
can hear him good
collecting the empty souls
like only evil would.

Breath of an empty bottle
filled with everlasting pain
plowing through the bodies
calling out my name.

Torture he has granted
my blood runs free
back in the house
full of pure misery.

The never ending torment
made sure of that
took away my life
poisoned like a rat.

Your pleasure is beatings
you love to endure
killing my poor soul
knowing it was pure.

A child thats lonely
will never again heal
nothing you can do
only pain I feel.©2007 Tracydr42
