Free

By Ami (Gypsie) Offenbacher-Ferris

My body is an adversary

one I can not

fight

Tortured by day

tormented at night

The demon beckons

with pills to break

free

Take these he lies

and follow me

Into the land of darkness

where the damned stay interred

Come to me now

the dark spirit urged

A bright blinding light

reached from outside my

tomb

Listen not to the dark one

his way leads to doom

Suffer you will

and suffer you must

trapped

Trusting, feeling, believing

one day you’ll be

Free
