Expressionless Poem by Jason Burke

Expressionless



No expression on my face!
Death calls to me!
Rake the knife across my flesh!
Shadows lurk!
Watch my every move!
From depths beyond!
Personal demons rule!
Seem to lose control!
Call to me from the darkness beyond. Take my very soul, oh god of darkness. Let me play in your dark carnival. Watch the blade swing high above, slowly on the decline. Slice away my torso, let my blood flow red. Where do I fit in? Slip away once more. Slowly, slowly, my boat sinks. High upon the mountain, I try to
escape the clutches of darkness, still it
holds its grip. So tired I cant't sleep,
tonite oh death come take me away.
Take me to a far away land, where only
demons rule. Maybe they can torture
me, until I die a last!
