Man! So I was not going to post today, since I need to hit the sack fairly early to make sure I make it to my Urbex destination before sunrise tomorrow. But then I started having second thoughts. Was I ready to hit this place again, despite the several spooky things I have heard and felt while there? It’s like those typical campy horror movies (you know the ones) were the dumb teen hears the scratching blades on the other side of the door, but goes through anyways. While always a crowd pleasing even in a movie, real life is different. Even my wife said to me that I should probably bag it, if I’m having those strange gut feeligs. But, you know me. I’m cursed… cursed by the decaying beauty that awaits me in these dark rooms, creepy sounds, feelings and all!  I thought about this strange phenomenon while listing to Killswitch Engage’s ‘My Curse’, in which the lyrics (below the photo) seem written just for me today. So am I going to do this thing tomorrow morning or not? What do you think? It’s my curse, afterall.
My curse
This is my curse (the longing)
This is my curse (to)
This is my curse (the yearning)
This is my curse
There is love burning to find you
Will you wait for me?
Will you be here?
Your silence haunts me
But I still hunger for you
This is my curse (the wanting)
This is my curse (to)
This is my curse (the needing)
There is love burning to find you
Will you wait for me?
Still I want
And I still I ache
But still I wait
To see you again
Dying, inside, these walls
— Killswitch Engage
