Haunted
Trembling like a child once again
Haunted by visions that posess no end
Fiery fingers that touched softest skin
My mind returns to the prison within
Precious breath stolen with fear
Memories reflect a pain once near
Fading from light and forseeing death
Resounding calls to the strength thats left
Digging the grave to bury fallen tears
Am I still a captive of long ago years?
Hollow is the soul stolen from me
Satisfaction dances within eyes I still see
Bridges burned with soiled water beneath
Recalling heat from a blow placed on palest cheek
The damage was done, a trodden path was laid
Trying now to break from this prison....
Could my mind still be caged?
Yet now, I'm severing the chains that bind me again
Holding knowledge brought forth of a forgotten sin
Look into these haunted eyes and at long last see
Know there no longer resides a captive in me
