Intrusive Thoughts #1

Entombed in rain the shadows fall,

Never meant for more at all.

Caged in silence light's grown frail,

Darkness beckons to hope turned pale.

Now for screams and beg forget,

Behind closed eyes hides regret.

Next stop pain and fiery hell,

Purse your lips and never tell.

Don't dig for truth behind a smile,

Let dogs lie with guise and guile.

No flash or shine shows in the dark,

Search for substance not for spark.

What comes next but hateful grave,

Both for cowardly and for brave.

All must dine upon death's platter,

And answer no to does matter matter.
