S adistic, toying with emotions
A nger settles in, for the night
D isbelief is not far behind
N eedless, self-deprecation in sight
E asing its way, borne of the dark
S unset, selfishly, brings about tears, I am
S ecretly drowning, in my own plight

Visitor
She waits by the lake
He returns
Unaware
She returns, into the depths
Dragging him along

It is, by chance, I find me here
Destiny lies in my utmost fear
Down below, the waters thrash
From up above, the falls do crash
Spraying droplets, upon my skin
As I ponder, should I jump in?
To drown in the eddies, that violently swirl
As I throw myself in, with an agonizing hurl
Or shall I sit here, letting the pain escalate?
And live with this, everlasting, twinge of fate?

I’m falling, falling
Deeper
Into the icy waters
Pulling me down
Into the darkness
I struggle for air
Gasping, Until
At last
I Awaken
Drenched,
In a pool
Of my own
Fears
