Nightmare

My worst nightmare comes to life
My family’s gone, all is a lie
Torture of the greatest degree
Slowly drives me from sanity

I don’t need to live
In these shambles of disgust
I don’t need to watch
As everything fades into dust

Nothing left, all is gone
Left alone with the breaking sun
Bit by bit, torn apart
I no longer care, my beating heart

Thrown into a whirlwind
Of ghastly dreams in sleep
I cannot escape it
These visions make me weep

Death and decay abound
Destruction is a lovely song
Infiltrating the minds around
Disease doesn’t make a sound

Silent shouts go unheard
Breaking bones shatter
Mentality is such a fragile thing
This insanity leaves us battered

Blackened bruises coat my skin
Tears of shame flow from my eyes
Fear will not over take my mind
I’m stronger than that, so I thought

Perhaps I’m not, perhaps I’ll break
Slide into that gaping hole opening beneath me
Senses leave me, caring disappears
This is it; I’m done with this life,
Nothing left to keep me here
