SAVED

I stared out the window

My brain, completely disengaged

No thoughts, no emotions

But a war was being waged

 

I could not move or even think

Stood lifeless, as I gazed

But, inside my brain

This awful darkness blazed

 

Outside the window, light

It seemed so warm and pure

Still, inside my head

A madness did me lure

 

I could not raise my voice

Could not, say a word

That evil’s lock on me

Seemed to be assured

 

But then an angel’s voice

So sweetly to me said

Come with me my dear

And let us go to bed
