Don't Turn out the Light

Contributed by BlackFire9786 on Thursday, 1st May 2003 @ 02:05:00 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



I see faces everywhere
With voices all their own
Speaking in my ear
Of things they shouldn’t know.

They grow out of the shadows
Disappear with a ray of light
But leave a cold message in my ear
We’ll be back tomorrow night

No one else knows them
Their message is just for me
With a spine-chilling shriek
And a hair-raising laugh
That in my mind just will not cease

Blood is their aura
They have knives for finger nails
And those knives on a chalkboard
Remind me of their wail

They feed on my weaknesses
They know every fear and secret, new and old
They suck out my sanity if I cower
Yet I die if I am bold.

So as I stand before you
I beg you one last time
Standing before God I ask you
Don’t turn out the light
