Forever (Nov 16th,2003) Poem by Nicholas McDonough

Slip away, from your mind,
Tell me what you find,
Open your eyes and I am there,
Close your eyes and I am everywhere,
Understand the fate in me,
Just look in and see,
When darkness fades away,
Dawn’s early mist rises for us to see,
We open the gate today,
For time has been told,
Now darkness is all that remains,
Empowering and bold,
Listen to their endless screams of pain,
As wings are forever torn,
Bloody and forlorn,
Shattered screams render in the broken night,
Run to smallest slip of light,
From the heart of cruel darkness,
She calls to me,
Reaches out unspoken,
From the land of the forsaken,
Spirit racing through my evil blood,
There is nothing I can do,
Now make your stand,
Cause time is at hand,
Bow down or run and flee,
For you are the next one you see,
Amidst the flood,
Of broken bodies and blackened blood,
You will release your life,
To join the lonely and dead,
You’ll never leave here alive,
As I have said,
For I will be the one devouring
Your useless soul
Open your eyes and I am there,
Close your eyes and I am everywhere.
