Empty

In the valley by my home
there is a lake I go alone
through the trees it draws me near
and whispers promises in my ear

 

In the coldest winter I have seen
I found myself upon my knees
looking through the frozen plate
in the middle of that lake

 

Staring down through thick clear ice
reminded me of deep blue eyes
and as my vision descended farther
my heart beat grew a little louder

 

For from the dark pupil of that eye
I saw a shadow come alive
and drift upwards through the blue
to take my hand and pull me through

 

Slowly did my body sink
and lovely did that shadow slink
and darker did become the water
and less and less did all else matter

 

As I accepted its embrace
it turned to show its porcelain face
Red hair framed full red lips
and my hands fell upon her soft hips.

 

I surrendered and leaned nearer
and her eyes became clearer
and as our lips touched I knew
there was no escaping from that blue

 

my breath was taken from my lungs
and into darkness I was flung
into dark pupils fell my soul
and left me empty and alone

 

alone I sat in that dark abyss
and thought about the things I'd miss
and let the darkness of that hell
fill in my empty broken shell

 

and let those demons take control
and walk me out of that dark hole
and watch the world that I once knew
slowly fade away from view
