The bright sun's rays tickled my cheek
as I sat under the great oak tree
I felt a slight soft breeze
touching my toes awakening me.
'Laying on the blades of grass
Hair sprawled out against her chest
The days with her were some of my best'
I stared at her bloody heart
The birds chirped melancholy
Her ghostly image still haunts me,
her face as pale as snow
How could I still hear her voice?
How could I believe she was real?
I wish I had never seen her face
Wish the memory could be erased
Hoped it hadn't been this way.
Her deathly grip grasped my skin
As she lifted me like a white dove
She took me up by the hand
Took me to another land
In front of me another kind of reality
A mansion built of cherry tree wood
The roof tops covered with sweet smelling fruit
The sense intoxicated me
as I remembered something of a faint memory
children running amiss the trees
jumping out without being seen
until the realization hit me
could this be the same sad memory?
I touched the rough tree bark
Trying to remember something once lost
I heard screams of terror from within
Crying and pleading without ceasing
Bright orange flames licked at the walls
Gnawing and gnashing to eat it all
Exits and doors just about sealed
I saw dead limbs drop to the floor
Saw dead bodies and faces once lost...
Right in front of me a door burst open
Children running out
Infront of me the roof collapsed
I heard a great big SNAP
The roof fell atop, smelling burning flesh
The terrorizing fright hurt my eyes
As I cried into a small circle ball
Oblivious to the world around me
Oh, why must my memories haunt me?
Its tendrils reach out and latch to my brain
And Infront of my eyes a figure falls abliss in flames
Her ghostly grip returns to my face
She grabs on turning me her way
Then I hear her whispered voice say
'come with me
And you shall see
How to be free
from the memories that haunt you and me'
she takes to the well and cries "jump in"
but I knew if I fell
I would never be able to escape this night
I would well and truly end my life
Yet I still jump in if only to end the shrieks
And as I fall
I see a body I vividly recall
That's when it hits me like a ton of bricks
All of her lies deceits and treacheries had just been tricks
To get me to join her once and for all
But it was too late I'd made the fall
my body had already hit the floor
I will be nevermore
