Nightmare [May 29, 2016]A Poem by Dillan CourtrightBlood drips in an abyss of despair Alone he sits in the darkness of his nightmare The corpses of his greed lay beneath his stare His demented mind swallowed in a cage of fear
Within the raging sea lies his mind Storms of hatred, keep him confined His madness slowly becoming part of his design More victims pile as he becomes more refined
As the crimson stains an ocean of pain He becomes part of this world lost in chains As the blood spills, his lust is sustained He falls victim to infinite shame
The mental binds of resentment hold him fast Beneath his agony, a pain impossibly vast He crawls beneath a burden of infinite mass He trembles and shakes, shatters like glass
Broken and beaten, his hollow heart still beats He opens his eyes, as he lies upon his sheets His nightmare consumed him, it made him weak Until his blade of mercy left a red streak © 2017 Dillan Courtright |
