Lost At Sea Floating so mesmerically Showboating so you'd see A coating of rust over me Bloating intravenously Everywhere and still nowhere People stare at my lack of flair Nothing's there, no one will care A true nightmare isn't quite so rare So I go along with the waves King of hearts, prince of knaves The tune departs on older staves Restarts, resounds, disbound, depraves Eventually a harbour shows A port of safety no one knows I drift past even as the current slows And shift with the lost to tread the shallows... #srp

HELL FIRE

I walk among the shadows
Through the charred garden of hell
Beside the burning bushes
And those flames I know so well
Each trapped and tortured soul I pass
Is screaming for release
I stumble on their reaching hands
Clawing at my feet
The devil laughs his wicked glee
As he drinks my broken tears
In strength his mighty power grows
While feeding on my fears
My skin is raw and molten hot
Just clinging to my bones
And yet I must keep walking
My endless search for home
