Welcome To Hell The dark wood line on the horizon Gleams of a deep scarlet red. The fog begins to part, Depressing thoughts rummage my head. Why do I try? I never succeed. All I want is to die And never to be Awakened again. I've begged and I've pleed For forgiveness, for courage For the strength not to bleed. But I've tried for too long, My prayers were ignored. My soul won't reach heaven. Were they even heard? The scars of failure Mar my arms. Attempts at my #life, For its always too hard Or maybe I'm weak And those scars are the proof. Who would ever want me? A gravelly voice whispers "I do." I turn around, salty years of my own. "I just want to leave this fucked up place I call home." "I can help, darling girl, Let me explain. Just simply take my hand And I'll end all your pain. I'm from a place you don't know, But it's so far away. Understand you can't come back, Once you're mine, mine you stay." I try to meet his eyes, But his black cloak hides them well. A dark shadow for a face, My escape from myself. "I want to go." I whisper quietly. He says "Take my hand And forever mine you'll be. But don't forget the deal, Once you're mine, you're mine forever I can't bring you back I can't return you, not ever. "I don't care! Take me now!" And I grab his velvet hand. Suddenly falling away Into my Promised Land. I land quite painfully, Looking around at the land into which I fell. Terror then strikes when I see A sign Reading Welcome To Hell.
