Ashes to ashes

I see him in my dreams

HE haunts me from the hallways

Yet he is nothing more then some thing.

All of hell’s people know my name

I’m called a witch

but have never earned that fame.

I played

around in magic for a while

I didn’t know what i was doing

but the idea of having power made me smile.

But now something stalks me in the dark

Making me jump at every shadow

I feel his pressence in my heart

Oh, Lord, please help me now.

Forgive this long forgotten child

Let not this fate be mine

To die of this demons claws

I can feel the nearing of the time.

I feel him laughing as I write this,

his breaths taking the warmth from my air

I cringe at his very hiss

He is too strong for me to fight

To powerful for me to stand up to.

I’ve tired many times in my finest hours,

Telling him to come on out! I’m not scared of you!

But I am so very afraid

Knowing if I fight what I must see

To hold my soul against my chest

To battle the demon back to the soil

To lay it at rest

But I know it will never go

I don’t know how

But I’m sure I know

I can feel is starring at me as I write

Asking me to come say Hi

A loving invite.

I can’t see him, but I know he’s there

I feel him in the room

I smell him everywhere

I’m battling for safty in my own home

yet I fear one day my mother shall come home
