Inside Stone Walls

I sleep
And the souls come whispering.
They want me to surrender
To their silence.
They seduce me.
No more sins...
No more sickness...
No more sadness...
Silence inside stone walls.
Nothing simpler than silence.
They whisper...

Screaming like a dying animal
I cry out the names of all evil creatures.
Try to break my way outside.
Throw myself against the heavy door again and again.

Worthlessly.
Soon the silence wins.

I sleep.
And the souls come whispering.
They want me to surrender
To their silence.
