Alone

Clear,dark and lonely nites.
Where the only thing that shines is the full moon's brite light.
The wind blows softly as it wispers in your ear, Reminding you of what there is to fear.
Letting your mind slowly sink deeper into its own devilish pit.
Not heaven or hell could help you escape this deep, dark hole.
Lacking the will to want to get out so it keeps you locked in.
Always telling you there's no place to begin.
You are lost to the world of loneliness, Where your mind is clouded over.
Thoughts are all gone and life is shortly turning to dust, And your hearts begins to rust.
People's voice's fade in and out never staying solid, And all you begin to see is their hollowness inside.
And the will to die grows stronger.
