Literature Text

Death calls upon us, in chains and misery.
Sifting through pain and calamity.
Raining down in waves, bleeding chaos.
Is there anyone left to save us?

Nightmares plague our every walking reality,
Blending whats real with make believe.
Impossible for justice to leave its fair mark,
Leaving us in guilt, alone in the dark.

Upon nights uneven strike we cry out in despair,
But for a single life left ever in disrepair.
Upon the demons hands we cannot hope to face,
Pull us ever down to take their place.

While they roam free destroying all we have built,
Leaving us companion to our gutless guilt.
For not one of us stood and defied their number,
Henceforth eternal hell in silent slumber.
its been a while I know...
