The Weight

The weight...oh the weight...

The day had been so beautiful, so fortuitous...

A bright yellow sun with a brilliant blue sky...

And then the weight...oh the weight...

Darkness, unbreakable darkness holding me still...

Never ever letting my frail form go...

The weight...oh the weight...

The fields of brilliant emerald...

The shimmering azure of the open sea...

The weight...oh the weight...

My loyal friend, skin of green and razor sharp leaf...

My dearest companion, a reptile of viridian hue...

The weight...oh the weight...

A thunderous echo, a masive clang...

He had lost, my timeless friend had gone...

The weight...oh the weight...

Black and grey, loyal shadows snapping at the light...

Destroyed with a single vicious stike...

The weight...oh the weight...

Over and over they seemed to go...

Teammate dissapearing into that red hot maw...

The weight...oh the weight...

At last was me, the only being...

A piece of flesh, the only to be seen...

The weight...oh the weight...

An echoing pounce, the ground shaking beneath...

My body pressed, flattened and squeezed...

The weight...oh the weight...

Cold steel blue, shaded with darkness...

Dulled silver, a cross of malevolance...

The weight...oh the weight...

All at once it opens, the gaping maw...

Molten crimson and the screaming of souls...

The Weight! Oh the Weight!

Unable to move it comes closer...

Drawing ever near...

The Weight! Oh the Weight!

A hand shoots up, to stop the approach...

Sizzling flesh and a snap is the price...

The Pain! Oh The Pain!

Snap, snap, snap!

Over and over again...

The weight...oh the weight...

Steel blue tinted a delicious crimson...

Oh that weight...

I cannot move...
