Seeping through veins

the river of blood flows

carrying a secret

that no one knows

Fear and anxiety

spreading through each cell

blazing brightly

as it enters hell

Every deed

presented from within

a towering presence

with an evil grin

Fire and lava

sears the blood

the heart screams

terror in the flood

Begging for mercy

wanting to be free of the pain

calling for help

as heat sears the veins

Out of the darkness

mercy relieves the heat

calmness is returning

with each heart beat

Attack is over

as the night turns to day

life returns to normal

as the demons run away
