Faltering

I tread a land so sadly strange
The world around me slowed and changed
I only saw a ghostly haze
Which veiled my melancholic gaze
It felt like rain which pattered lightly
It drowned my sorrow ever slightly
On my florid feet I felt
A marble cold as hail's pelt
Reality I could not waive,
I stood upon a vacant grave
The ground beneath me caving in
My demons clawed against my skin
Consuming me, my very core
My soul was drained, like rain it poured
"Goodbye!" I cried to none at all
Only death has seen me fall
I know now, that when moonlight beams,
I walk within the devil's dream
