Frigid moon in isolation hanging
Casts through the groaning limbs a strangled shine
The glow falls malaised on the passageway
Its conclusion choked in fog
The hourglass has filled with lead
Rigid nightfall brimming with paranoia
Shattering glass
To rend the stillness
Shiver sent rattling along the spine
Phantoms conjured
Translucent
Unmoving
The harvester's hand outstretched
Leaden footfalls descend
Silhouette looms overhead
Harrowing final doorway confessed
Further into emptiness
Beyond dreams
Life's aspiration withering
Gasping cheated memory
Glowering ghouls emanate from my skull
No longer to discern what is real
From the mind's staged trickery
Walls disintegrate into a forlorn wasteland
Wraiths in the doorway
Claws reaching in darkness
My demons have manifested
Between the black holes in my mind and the winter and the void
Might I persist
To my senses
I've lost the world around me
I open my eyes to nothing
