The Dead Aren't Resting

House of the dead;

lost souls domain

 

Night is 24 hours

a day

 

and no rest for their minds;

 

Boredom is normal

 

Tormented by the past

 

An uncertain future

 

In  a void; a purgatory of death

 

Wondering the halls,

Their bodies still rotting in the walls

 

Disembodied spirits

taking their revenge; 

 

A condemned house;

no life dwelleth here

 

Falling apart;

falling into ruin

 

Shadows they follow their thoughts

 to the trauma they endured

 

In life they suffered,

in death they still do,

 

Never relieved

of their pain

 

Dark clowds always above,

never ending rain. 

 

No tears, cannot shed,

dry as bones.
