Forevermore

It breaks my soul to watch

My heart grows sick and sore

This sight is too much to bare

Should I shut my eyes forevermore?

Silent screams upon their lips

Dreams of escape stuck in thier eyes

Freedom no longer a privelage

Pleas of hope lost in their soundless cries

Shackles of doom stuck upon thier skin

Dried tears leaving salty streams

Appearance hides the fire inside

Nothing is what nothing seems

Time and time and time again

Broken promises fill the air

It's hard to breathe when i'm surrounded

By the cold touch of despair

Disfigured creatures lurk in the shadows

Condemning them to pain

To watch this scene through my eyes

Will certainly drive me insane

I try to turn away but I can not

My paralyzed body unable to react

But I still see hope's eternal flame

Their belief in this is truely fact

Bile arises in my throat

I weep tears at this destructable sight

The shadows shade the weary bodies

That hover painfully throughout the night

It broke my soul to watch

My heart grew sick and sore

This sight was too much to bare

I shall shut my eyes forevermore
