Array ( [sid] => 165986 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Marooned [time] => 2011-04-24 07:22:48 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Dreaming of monsters and dead lovers passed
Of legions of demons taken before the mast
On a ship made of pure evil on an ominous path
To maroon me on an island where time doesn't pass
I've been left in a prison created for me
Alone in the darkness for all eternity
Not a soul to join me in solidarity
Save for demons who flash thirsty teeth
Staring out into the endless black sea
Tormented by monsters who lie down beneath
Awaiting to pull me five thousand leagues deep
To join them forever in terminal sleep
No shelter to hide my weak pale skin
Save for a tomb created of sins
The walls seem to breath and slowly cave in
Collapsing on me and sealing me within
Out of the darkness a voice whispers to me
Filling my mind with lies and uncertainty
That this is for real and not just a dream
How I will be trapped in this hell for eternity
A sharp shooting pain, a gasp in the night
Awake from a dream that was riddled with fright
Subconsciously feeling like something's not right
But I'll never know, I didn't wake up that night. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 73 [informant] => spencer1607 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => abstract )
