Chances Part 3

When your eyes are closed....it’s dark.

When your eyes are closed and you're swallowed up by the shadows of evil.....you're in hell.

Just burning and praying that it's a nightmare you can wake up from.

Nowhere left to run,

I have dreamed my way into a nightmare and my nightmare has transformed into reality.

Open my eyes to find the son of chaos choking the life out of me.

I can't breathe.

I can't speak.

Oxygen leaving my body so fast it's getting hard to think.

Can't blink,

Because if I do I may not ever open my eyes again.

One last look across the room to see her face.

She's still breathing.

I can’t help but force a smile.

Everyone wants to win but sometimes you have to accept defeat,

Closed my eyes & prepared myself, but that's when the grip around my neck released.

He backed away slowly mumbling "don't let it happen again."

Climbed onto the window sill, spread his wings, and flew off into the wind.

I heard her yawn so I nervously stood to my feet,

She looked around the room once before resting her eyes on me.

She smiled and it warmed my heart but when she whispered "I love you." that changed everything for me.

The three wounds cupid left me with healed instantly,

Gone from my memory,

It's like those girls no longer exist to me.

High risk high reward.

Advances require chances at some point in life.

And life is yours to live or lose.

Chances....
