Delirium spreads its poison into my blood,
Slowly seeping into my heart.
People, faces, names, things I loved-
They are the first to go
Slipping away from my fingertips,
And no matter how far I reach,
My hands cannot grasp these memories from the dark.
The cold sickness fills my heart
Emotions become a thing of the past,
Wet, salty liquid falls down my face,
For reasons that I used to know why
Screams erupt from my throat
And I try to remember.
Darkness continues encircling me,
As more liquid runs down my face
Frantically I search for who I am,
But no one is there.
Panic and fear rumble within me,
Something belongs there, I know it.
Walls, barriers built like a fortress
Crumble inside me.
Pain, I remember pain now.
Pain, oh pain how I missed you,
I sob this
As pain takes me away
Into the darkness.
The psychosis of all this is frightening,
Reality becomes as an unknown measurement of time.
I plead, I beg
But it is of no use to me now,
Delirium touches my lips,
And the poisonous feeling spreads further
My knees grow weak and let out,
But Delirium is there to catch my fall,
Your hand, Delirium, it clasps mine
Fear dissipates from your touch,
I am no longer afraid,
I have been waiting for you all along.
You take me under,
Making everything fade into black
And darkness takes over.
