An Unclaimed Soul

I express my feelings in the way I dress
From head to toe wearing black (who's to impress?)
Death awaiting, darkness arising
Fear is in the air, why isn't it frightening?

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

I feel a thousand eyes burning into me
Whispers behind my back, I've become their enemy
So much pain, death has poisoned my mind
Light burnt out, my shadow has left me behind.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

When the rain stops, I'll be gone
When the clouds flee, I'll be gone
When the sun dawns, I'll be gone
Nowhere to be seen
I'm just an unclaimed soul.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Stuck in the middle of love and hate
No longer know what direction to take
Angels cannot find me anymore
Demons taken over my inner core
Only death now shines out of these eyes
Maybe it's a spell and I'm hypnotised.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

The air burns my lungs inside out
Falling to my knees, can't scream or shout
I remain silent, shutting myself away
Gave up on life, my soul had nothing to say
My happiness burnt away by the inferno
Gold turns to dust at the end of the rainbow.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

When the rain stops, I'll be gone
When the clouds flee, I'll be gone
When the sun dawns, I'll be gone
Nowhere to be seen
I'm just an unclaimed soul.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

No one understands the pain I'm going through
God can't help because I'm out of His view
My eyes well up, tears of blood
Footprints faded in the flood.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

This soul of mine can't make a sound
This soul of mine will never be found

An unclaimed soul receives no judgement
An unclaimed soul only knows punishment

An unclaimed soul...

...my unclaimed soul...

...lost forever...

...black hole.

Many can truly understand
The depths of pain you face
And that if you choose Light
Your soul can't be erased.

Very gothic. I like it.
