Dull desires wake me
to the sonorous beats
of debilitating heartaches

A sunken chest
a bleeding heart
a shredded soul
a taunt frail torso
enveloped by frozen emotions
toyed and stirred maliciously by holy deceits
wear wrinkles on my face
and coerce me into the darkened
corridors of depression

I hear sounds of the stranger in my bed
Yes, the stranger in my house
eerie,deafening and deadly
questions thronging
answers dimming

The night is...
