Whisper

Mirror mirror on the wall

Voices speak, darkness falls

Gnaw at your mind, beg when you're weak

A whispered lull, shrieking calls


Picture picture in the frame

You turn your head and hide your shame

Hands reach out, gnarled, oblique

Laughing at their twisted game


Passing passing pass you by

Watching watching, watch you try

Ignore, pretend like they don’t speak

And keep you up all hours of night


White walls, white walls surround every end

Arms bound, held tight, the locks are your friend

The voices bend, they bleed, they leak

You spoke, they heard. They trapped you again


Quiet, quiet, shadows grow near

Lesser, lesser, don't let them hear

Open, a path, that’s what they seek

Grabbing, grabbing, reach for your fear


Flee, flee, run while you can

Chasing, chasing, hunting began

Your lungs are burning, you fly on your feet

Desperate, desperate, only a span


Faster, faster


Push harder…


You’re slipping… **falling**...


_Dissolving…_
