Ghost Roads

Shimmering dust

of sparkling rays

stand by my side

give the wind a soul

feel my hair

lift gently from my face

wavering in the air

its black strands

fingered by a totured soul

one that was that age

when they met the end

the start of walking

to no end

in deranged mind

simply obsessed

wrap the clawed fingers

around my neck

screaming uncontrolably

with such totured pity

lower my eyes

finally see

that familiar face standing there

or so she 'did'

"cant go to sleep"

she screams

but faraway

drifting on sea

I am trapped

on this boat

a million miles

from where I should be

"find me back"

open my arms

over the boat

but its so black

so full of dead

I scream

hold the necklace

at my throat

and feel the blades

stick in my throat

so much pain

getting furthern away

cant keep it up

give up

feel my feet slip

over the boat

feel the air

hear no breath

plunges into an ocean

of merging skulls dead

diseased breath

against my cheeks

clawing at my hair

here a tear

of blood drops

hands at my face

look into the eyes

of those who keep walking

but long for revenge

who walk the ghost roads

not quite human

fighting for the top

merging over all spaces



Something drops

sparkles bright in the darkness

screaming

anguished souls

a hand pulls me up

and light rushes up to greet me.

Blood on my hands

someone elses tears on my face

give this hope

for this brand new day.
