Dark Room

I find myself locked in this room

This room which is filled with gloom

This room which glows like kindled    fire

This room which stores the desire

I see the darkness imminent arrival

A choking sensation that erases any survival

With monstrous creatures hovering above

Standing at the darkness disposal


Drums and trumpets announce the suffering

Violins and cellos tote the ending

My soul has nowhere to hide

In this mess impossible to abide


My eyes are overwhelmed with hot tears
Like a fire growing in a dry forest night

Consuming me with my greatest fears

Letting myself slip away of what is right

All of this is for one thing

The desire of being free

The desire supposed to bring peace

Has locked me down in this room with nowhere to flee

My crying feels never ending

My heart breaking with every mending

With my memories fading

With my existence dissipating

Leading me into nothingness

Into the vast void of loneliness


Wishing to be free is not being free

Being alive is being free

Beware of losing the key

Or you will be trapped in this hell

Just like me
