Falling silently in place
As I look up in my disgrace
And see the laughing of each face
As I die

The killing of my free soul
The spilling of the bloody bowl
Flinging me deep into the hole
They made me dig myself

Wishing to make my senses dead
Their hands have all been stained red
Clawing at my own head
Yearning to wake up

Please free me from this dream
Things aren't always as they seem
The nightmares call me as they gleam
Enticing me into sleep

Bring me back to reality
To the way it's supposed to be
I must be blind, for I can't see
But this is how it really is

I wrote this for a song, but I never ended up turning it into a full-fledged song. Interpret it as you like. No, it's not about suicide. Or murder...

Very nice. While I'm not one for critiquing poetry....I liked it. The composition especially <3

Thank you very much. It's especially wonderful for me to get people who don't comment much on poetry to comment on my poems.
