Cheryl's Verse

Cheryl's Verse

A torture on the mind
A pin to the brain
Spikes melt my heart
Feelings held in vain
Held beneath a dungeon
Chains wrapped inside my head
Screaming body tightly
Pain here never sheds

At the darkest point
All my fears proliferate
Sinking more deeply
Before my wits suffocate
Trapped in this hole
There is no escape
Hollers turn to vapour here
A poisoned void is haste

A shadow dances solemnly
To taunt and scream the myth
Whispers of opinion
Are silenced to subsist
Touch the silver blade
So quick to ease the pain
Anger now intensifies
Head breakingly insane

The grey tinted swine
Comforts all misery so unfair
Echo's are forgotten
Institutionalised in care
Silenced now the inner realms
Till tomoro's habits come
Then it starts all over again
Till everything is numb
