Have you seen the Forsaken
This life for them was taken
Cursed to see Laughter, and the Joy that follows thereafter
Cursed to Drift in Shadows you see
To Haunt the You and the Me
Angry for Love they cannot touch
Lost and Lonely their Soul is still intact
For the Light was not seen in a Heart Wrenching Act
Murder or Suicide, or an Accident to split the Plain
Waking to find themselves in a place they cannot explain
What do I do, and where are those that I loved
Placed in the blackness as if they've been shoved
No understanding of why they still feel
This part of their Soul that is still so very real
If you feel that a loved one is still with you
Do Not call to them, for they are not there
It is a Demon feeding off your emotion
The love you had with enduring devotion
That energy that emits they crave to feed
To enact their evil and rancid of deed
Take heed these words of clarity
As an act of spiritual charity
To help those that have passed
Prayer and Fasting, to help lead them into ascension
To rebuke the Evil that walks with the unaware
Awareness of your surroundings, and always beware
For under your bed, or the unlived shed
Behind your door or a window they see
The corner of your eye, seeing them for the first time
Terror invoking the urge to flee
