Today
I live
Tomorrow...
My actions
Keep me at bay
Trapped within
These four grey
Walls
Where darkness
Fills my days
Emptiness haunts my
Nights
Silence mocks me
I consume the
Stale musky air
Sometimes
I can't breathe
Alive
But buried
My life has passed
Me by
Though I should
Have not left
That night
I replay It
Over, and over
Again
Why did it
Have to be this way?
Is there another
Place?
Another side to
This terrible journey?
No more
Can I hide
I chose
This Path
A walk I must
Take alone
Each passing moment
It calls me with
A light whisper
Emily...Emily...
Emily...
I start to shiver
My bones have
Become weak
Frail
I can't eat
Sleep has given
Me only to Hallucination
The clock
Is my only
Companion
Once my Ally
But It has turned
It's back on me!
The hour draws
Near
Tik
Tok
Tik
Tok
One last request
Gone denied
Of when will
My eyes
See morning again?
I should have
Told her
I loved her
I should...
I should have
Been there to
Have seen her
First steps
First smile
First dance
But my girl
Has been traded
For Theirs
Now all I see
Is her pain
And her broken
Body slammed upon
The wet pavement
My sins for all
The world to see
Jack's still heavy
On my breath
I stumble out
Her cries for help
Go unanswered
Her...
Tears began to
Fall
As I held her
In my arms
Im sor...
I stumble back
Running from her
Pain
Red Light
Blue lights
Everywhere
No way out...
How could I have
Been so reckless!
I awake
My mind plays
It again
And when this
Day Is over
When my life
Has been taken
Like a candle
Fluttering In the
Wind
Only to disappear
And when
All the sunrises
All the sunsets
Have faded away
Into obscurity
My last words
To you will
Remain
I'm Sor....
"Mr. Johnson...Are you ready?"
