“mistakes..”
this is a place where it won’t ever
hurt again
stuck
in a maze
in a belly
did we step into a place god can’t see?
i waited for you
but you never came
through every night, in every dream
the siren is seen reflecting from the sun
but the sun is muted by your ghost face
light is given no form throught
heat freezes in midair
and pierces through my spine
“..take..”
for so long i fought the urges
three bells are laid upon
the cup tilts and spills it’s knowledge
it’s power
“do not forsake me,” he said.
i promised myself death when i agreed.
paralzyed floor tiles
mark the spot
seven sins
seven embraces
seven smiles
dark drapes echo with her chants
the begging
pleading
witnessing
a twinkled glimpse of her eyes
in a moment forever sustained
while i struggle to raise from
bended knees
broken will
burial ground
“..the rest of your beautiful days.”
never can i have the chance to say,
you can have me
just leave my skin behind
if you have no need for it
my eyes are your playthings
tear flesh from frozen bone
you always admired my hands, yeah?
so take them
they’re yours
just leave her be.
we know what you want.
we know what you are.
look at the candles on the cake
ritual,
circle and drum
step inside
“you truly deserve
what you have.”
wash the memory away
forget
for ever
