The Dreadful Silence

Trapped in a tomb of nothingness No light, no sound Encased in the isolation of my prison Damped and removed from all I hear the blood flowing through my veins The sound of my heart pumping The outside silence, the inside turmoil My brain is going to fast to understand My heart is racing I am in the void of absolute silence My pain, my sorrow, and my hatred My sins have caught up My wrath won, my envy won Now I am paying the ultimate price For I killed my family; they are at peace I am now to suffer for eternity, body and soul My choices left me a husk The void will not let me die My eternal prison of silence Left with nothing left but my own thoughts I will never die from the hunger, I will never die from the thirst, But those are not the biggest calamity The silence, the painful silence The pain of never hearing My mind hallucinates sounds My mind hallucinates everything I am trapped in nothingness I know nothing of what I look like anymore I know nothing of sound anymore I know nothing anymore An eon has passed and still eternity awaits The curse will never let me go insane I will always know what I have done I will always know the price I had to pay I am a decrepit soul I am eternal I am buried alive The dreadful silence is my tomb My worst nightmare come to life Truly alone Truly by myself Truly alone with my emotions Nothing else I can do But suffer for my sins I cannot repent I cannot be forgiven This is my punishment
