The Devil's Torch

You're desperately lost,
 writing your way into the madness

Each word a false beacon,
your hopes to decry

You're desperately lost,
searching the caves of your memory

Delusion the caretaker,
your verses to lie

You're desperately lost,
as every voice now deserts you

Time running backwards,
the heat turned up high

You're desperately lost,
as the Sirens misguide you

The torch of the demon
-burning darkly inside

(Dreamsleep: February, 2020)
