Almost there
Buried in the shadows
Cast by the ruined mind.
Death recalls a memory
Echoing inside of the
Furthest chasm that keeps
Growing.
Hurry before he catches you
Inside the sacred place whose
Journey required peace.
Keep still and
Listen for the
Monster’s heavy step.
Never stray
Off of the given
Path.
Question the broken thing
Resting in the corner too
Scared to show its face.
Take nothing that lies
Under the darkened
Vault and
Wonder not about the
Xanthosis that grows within
Your mind keeping you from your
Zenith.
