A poem by dark_horizons,
The Voices
It was amidst the furor of a terrible dream
The night the voices came
They were sad and sweet, and far away
And they were calling out my name
Then a voice took the form of a beautiful girl
And she brought forth with her a friend
They were the two most wonderful people
And they talked of the coming end
I listened to them for a long, long time
I hoped the day would never come
Like the night was my only savior
And I would be killed by the morning sun
Then the others who had since been silent
Now broke into a sweet refrain
The king and queen slowly faded away
But I knew that I would see them again
Then the choir of voices sang only to me
A song so sweet and pure
It told of a life so painful
And of how death was the only cure
It was then I awoke in an ice cold sweat
As I ran and got a gun
And it took just a minute to load it
As I sang the song they had sung
And I never knew a feeling so good
As I put the gun up to my head
And I exploded into ecstasy
When the bullet struck me dead
And now I am with them, so sad and lonely
As I search for water in Hell
I sing to those who will never know
And I speak, but will never tell
