NIGHTERRORS II silence speaks volumes
Shattered,
A city skyline weeps within
Tendrils of the deep
A broken world, time's cruel grin.
The compass needle spins insane
Lost in a dreamscape's refrain
Echoes of what was
Whispers in the silent mist.
The sky bleeds into the labyrinth
A canvas of lives lived out fast
Words etched in stone
that haunts forevermore.
What Jagged maw, extends into eternity
titan broken, spilling gears of city, drowned.
Pieces and parts of a mortal tear
twist in the hollow of time
a nest of nightmares absent of rhyme.
A single, eye stares from the depths
reflecting a desolate shore, a skeletal horizon.
A monument to forgotten industry
in the machinery of despair.
Dreamscapes bleed.,
Tentacled secrets unfurl.
Time is bent and broken
Points on a compass unseen.
Is this rhythm or requiem?
An abyss stares back, unblinking.
We are both creators and destroyers,
Of oblivion.
Listen closely.
The silence unspoken.
