The Madman.

The Madman.

A Poem by Maxwell M.
"

we all go a little mad sometimes.

"

through spider-cracked glass,

and a heart that bends.

there may be a demon.

there may be a demon.

and it looks like you.

 

it says..

"sell me,

your compassion and understanding.

and in return you'll get your fee."

oh, this isn't real.

please tell me this isn't real.

 

just keep breathing.

remember to stay calm.

we're only being surrounded by horror.

this is only a test for our heads.

remember to stay calm.

 

where are you?

i only see grasping hands around me.

i only see fear and blood around me.

i don't want this anymore.

you have no choice!

 

just keep breathing.

remember to stay calm.

we're only being surrounded by horror.

this is only a test for our heads.

remember to stay calm.

 

there is no light in this room.

just the constant scratching of walls around me.

they'll just wait for me in hunger.

i think i feel warm light in the air.
