A soundless nightmare. Date: Monday, 1st September 2008 @ 04:59:25 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: LauraMary A chiming deep inside your ears and silence in your screams The lights are gone The switches fallen absent as it seems Just find a knob run up the stairs while blackness blankets eyes Find a match and light a flame continue silent cries Look deep inside the empty rooms for signs of waking life but no ones there they've left you here in lonely aching strife The chiming getting louder as vibrations shake the door Of a closet in your brothers room and you go cross the floor You turn the knob and all you see is RED RED rushing down The bodies of your family tied up is what you found RUN RUN away back to your room hide under hidden sheets Making sure you're still alive hand feeling thumping beats Let blackness fill your eyes some more to erase what you've seen Chant softly deep inside your head OH GOD PLEASE BE A DREAM Oh god please be a dream please let this be a dream...
