I CLENCH MY EYES
AND CLEAR MY MIND
LET THE VOID
TAKE OVER TIME
THE SOUND OF DARKNESS
THE SOUND OF SILENCE
THE SOUND OF DEATH CREAKING IN MY ATTIC
I TAKE A DEEP BREATH
AND EXHALE THE PAIN
KNOWING THAT I WILL NOT SLEEP AGAIN
MY MIND IS FILLED WITH GRIZZLY SCENES
BLOOD AND GORE
IN BETWEEN
I RISE FROM BED
WITHOUT A DOUBT
FACING DEATH
IN THIS FRIGHTENING BOUT
READY FOR MY FATE
WITH ONE THOUGHT IN MIND
INSOMNIA HAS
TAKEN OVER TIME
