Shush Demons
Inspired by "The Fall of The House of Usher"
By Ashley DeyPublished 9 years ago • 1 min read
How do I break this curse
I’ve burned the walls down
Destroyed what I could
But still it lingers
The putrid stench of the disease following me everywhere
I am haunted by ancestors unknown to me
Desperate ghosts clinging to the false hope of freedom
How are their lessons learned
If I never listen
Even though I know I ought to
Because otherwise I am doomed to repeat the mistakes of their pasts
And I will be the next to wither away
Then rot in the cold, damp ground
Haunting the poor soul who comes next
Still, I never listen
