Devil's Lies

by Isabel - Not entered

I sit
And stare into the darkness
The sleep curtains my eyes
Blanketing my brain slowly
My eyes have been stunned
	into thinking they should be shut
Tiresome nods
Yawning glares
My head needs to be propped up
	with my  sluggish hands
Dull thudding within my temples
	is hurting, pounding harder, faster
Fast-paced within my skull
The thudding begins to spread itself out
 It stretches throughout my head
It covers every part
My body begins to droop
I stumble
I trip
I fall
	but don't catch myself
I smash into the pavement
	And shatter into shards
White bloodiness covers my soul
Draining me so painfully
	So slowly
Tormenting me with lavish anguish
It tortures so wonderfully
	I like the feel of death
I like the way I die
I've never been so peacefully enraged
	within my mind
I feel myself being nailed into
	this plush coffin
My new home for deathly life
I can't sleep though
The maggots are pestering me
	They are eating my pale flesh
Aren't I supposed to rest in peace?
I guess the devil lied to me
