THE DEAD GAME HAS BEGUN





















Book 1 in Series

Darkness brings a pall to the streets.
A dread that can be felt by all.
It follows me with soft footsteps.
Growing closer behind me with each step.

The stores are closed and shuttered.
Night has fallen too quickly this day.
Has everyone else gone to hide,
Leaving me to fend off the encroaching dusk?

I should have listened to my heart's song.
Listened to reason and right from wrong.
I'm now trapped in this horror of despair.
Waiting for death to take me in its arms.

The shadows are growing larger.
Surrounding me from all sides.
There's nowhere to run. 
I will stand strong.

He's here.
I can feel him.
He's come back for me.
No one is safe from his wrath.


The cold wraps around me.
My hair drips icicles down my neck.
I shiver in dread of my future.
Will I become queen of The Dead?

The Dead Game has begun.

OCEAN OF BLUE






In the field of blue
I will roam.
In the ocean of flowers
I will be free.
In the sunshine
I will soar.
In this world
I will be happy.
Yes.
I will.

THE MOON FALLS






The moon goes 
through its phases.
Becoming smaller
each day.
Until it’s gone.
Leaving no trace
of its former self.
That is when The Dead
will come for us.
In the darkness.
In the coldness.
In the dark of night.
THE DEAD GAME

SKIN AND BONES



Source:

Skin and bones.
That’s all we are.
Easy to break.
Easy to fall.
Don’t fall apart.
Keep strong.
Keep fit.
In mind.
In body.
And in soul.

TOWERING





Source:

Cover me with leaves.
Shade me with your glory.
Heights towering above.
A protective cocoon.

WE LOVE TO DANCE






We love to dance.
To the pounding music.
To the sounds of the night.
To the darkness.
To the end.
To The Dead.
THE DEAD GAME

LADY OF THE NIGHT

blackoutraven Deactivated 

Lady of the night.
So sad.
Drifting through time.
Through space.
Lost.
Waiting.
Watching.
Alone.
Forever.

YOUR DESTINY



Source:

Open the book.
Read the words.
Take the journey.
To worlds unknown.
To freedom of expression.
To your destiny.

BLACK DESPAIR

BLACK DESPAIR



Red leaves cover the trees.
Red blood coats the grass.
Darkness entombs the town.
Black despair follows all.
THE DEAD GAME

THE EVIL INSIDE




THE EVIL INSIDE
Can you feel the evil?
Spreading through town.
Moving through the trees.
Entering through open windows.
Spreading.
Enveloping us all.
It comes at night.
Into our beds.
Seeking the innocents.
Ones to join them.
In their deadly adventures.
Do not join them.
Stand strong.
Don’t let the evil enter.
Once it’s inside,
it won’t leave.
Until all are dead.
THE DEAD GAME

RED FLOWS






Red flows freely.
From the ocean.
Through the town.
Into windows.
Up the stairs.
Into your beds.
It sucks dry.
The innocent.
The sleeping.
It takes all.
For its own.
For its army.
An army from hell.
