Ghosts, blood, water
December 21, 2023 at 6:48 PM
Ghosts, blood, water;
Ghosts, blood, no say in the matter;
Faces in corners, blood on my hands, look in my eyes and see point still stands:
(I just want to be able to sleep again);
Screams in my ears, blood on my hands, don’t look into ghost’s eyes,
Never again;
My stomach is churning, the shadows are turning,
Something alive has curled by the wall,
I won’t help this thing at all,
Or else I’ll be eaten whole.
Blood staining windows, wings set on fire,
I’ll offer myself up to the Moon on a pyre,
If the night will swear to me before it gets dire
That in my dreams I’ll once again be able to fly.
(I wish I could see what’s there on the Other Side)
