Drowning

By MaryHall

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Last night I was in a place where evil had control A stronghold of darkness and the devils own Death and depression, filth and sadness These are the things we hide inside I can be found once again, in a realm of my transgressions Drowning in this lie, that I have to stay here Living here,in this world... I'm drowning here We stepped out of my car, me and my mother and the place outside was dark and someone screamed If it's my money,go and spend If it's my life,then let it end I would give you all the keys to my heart We are seeing now a world that we have created Not just in my mind, but all around,the real world Someday I will be free Someday I'll find true love Someday I'll live inside Someday in heaven...
