Once i had a life
now only darkness,dispair
WAIT!! I see a light.
Are you the light i see? A pheniox flame in a world of madness.
For the light i see is far away,and is going to take some time to reach .
though the distance is far the light seems to be stedy.
Is the correct path a straight one?
there seems to be a storm around us both .
Ignighting the air around us.
rippling the water and shakeing the ground on witch we stand.
The light i see brings a flutter to my heart and keeps me awake at night!
A feeling it seems i lost so long ago.
Is a step towards the light the correct one?
In the darkness that surrounds me is my first step going to send me falling away from my light?
Or will it be one step closer?
The thought of that step brings a sweat to my brow with antisipation.
My heart races with the desire to be closer.
Though the distance is far my imagineation runs wild.
And i see myself embraceing the light and being surrounded by its beauty.
But i know not to approach to quickly.
For the driveing wind that blows at my back could also extinguish the flame.
And my light would be lost forever.
the night grows on still i don't tire.
for days now now ive sat and conspired.
to kill the things living under my stairs.
for when i try to sleep they yank on my hair .
they torment me as i lay in bed.
squatting fat in the corner with eyes glowing red.
as the night grows on i get this feeling
that something is crawling around my ceiling
with that i leap from my bed with a bound
turn on the light but there is nothing around
i roam through my house with sword in hand
prepared to make my final stand
through the window i can see its almost dawn
and from under the stairs i hear their song
from under the stairs or from your head
are the creatchers that keep you from your bed

It sounds to me that it is meant it to be inspirational. Suddenly goes philosophical. Ah, the human mind is an interesting thing.
The emotions you can stir up, and even create, are extremely powerful...

Beautiful doesn't even begin to describe this.
That is touching and powerful, and the words have such a good flow. I think the imagery goes well with it to picture it inside my mind.
