Hell is behind the Door
The locked door in your mind trembles
Monsters yearn to break free
Their voices are wet, dripping with poison, tar and saliva
They whisper, tempt and plead to be let out
But you know what those nightmares do
They would desecrate your temple of a body
They would have you carve away at yourself
Everything that made up your being would slowly spill out
Hell is place you created to lock those monsters away
You swallowed the key so they could not escape
But you must stay attentive
The door does not disappear
It remains
Waiting
