Lifeless Soul
By Nomar Knight
I'm a prisoner of my
mind
No longer warm and
kind
Darkness escapes my
pores
Simple smile becomes
a chore
The demons come from
need
Gauging eyes until I
bleed
Ripped my heart from
my chest
Life's cruelest
horror test
Play back old scenes
of love
In search of
peaceful doves
Black ravens caw and
stare
And nobody seems to
care
The end squeezes
life dry
Never answering why
Nothing left but
wait and die
While vultures
circle dark sky
Sounds of hell
hounds abound
Evil creatures
surround
The final bill is
due
Lifeless soul
without a clue
