Criticly Acclaimed
in the midst of fearful delusions
the worst case scenario in my head
deadlocked behind my tears
loves stranglehold
a loss of free will to do what i thought
amongst the romans away from rome
something took over
something said no
the hand of god was cut
the devil healed my hands so i could pray
jesus came to him like a thief in the night
death walked the circles of the crime of a forgotten century
it was criticly acclaimed
went to lay down, needing a rest from the screaming in my head
you gave your life today said a whisper
blackness
be good i was told
awoke at ten
voices gone, overwhelmed by a new state of mind
confusion of realities
one that was before insensitve endless hooks in my head
the one there is now, the silence
inner tranquility
exasperated that it was gone
how beautiful life had already just become
