Toxic Melody


staring at you in the eyes
to feel you swallow me up from inside
shortness of breath
looking for someplace safe to rest
escape this torment
that will never leave my head


SURROUNDED IN YOUR DARKNESS
COMFORTING IN YOUR CARESS
I'M SHIVERING WITH DISTRESS
YOUR DARKNESS SURROUNDS IN LETHAL SHADES
PERMANENT FADE


staring at you in the eyes
to feel you swallow me up from inside
shortness of breath
looking for someplace safe to rest
escape this torment
that will never leave my head


THE DREAMS PERSUADE
IN NIGHTMARISH WAYS
CANNOT FIND ESCAPE
YOUR STRANGLING GRASP
SKIN PEELED BACK TO REVEAL
THIS HATE

THE DREAMS SUBDUED
BY YOUR HAUNTING TUNE
A MELODY OF FEAR
THAT ONLY I CAN HEAR

What It Is!

The poem says what it says, it is what it is, but the all caps are horrors...please, they slow down the eye and detract from the enigmatic view . . . Hard to read amd wanted to...Lady A

Caps

Sorry, I tend to write to music in my head or lyrics to an actual song and I tend to enjoy/write heavy, fast and angry music. This piece I've been attempting to put music to, so someday it become lyrics. Caps are emphasis on the sung "screams" portion that I have in my head.
