Dark Passenger II (Sonnet of the bound)


Even when They've all left you alone,

I will be by your side.

Even after all good fortune is gone,

My presence will abide.

I will always remember,

So that you may forget.

I shall never surrender,

So that you might rest.

And when all seems lost and forsaken,

If you feel as if there is no hope,

I will take control and awaken,

To throw your sorry ass a rope.

I am always watching,

For I can never sleep.
