Awake
I see it in my dreams.
Endless rows of stone pillars, dank air
That fills one with dread and fear.
The voices cry out in dark, telling compelling stories about
Destiny, love, life and death.
Sorrow fills the void and the unescapable sensation of imprisonment, damnation and
Neverending escape
Looms in the air.
Stories they whisper
Every word are a burden only too heavy, my body aches, but my soul craves freedom, warmth, love, compassion.
Awakening is a gift, but every visit leaves me less and less, and the dreams of the netherworld and the
Damned souls that inhabit it
Takes more and more.
